Hi,

     As i told on a comment to that PR,

       We currently do not use github PRs because that repo is not our 
main one.

       Even if it was, that PR had to be refused because is has mostly 
things specific only that fork

       For example we do not include any money modules, those are 
external ones that should be provided and maintained by own teams.

Real money has a lot of issues far from pure tech.

       Some of those commits are in fact circular.. they request to 
inject our own code back...

      Think the fix to LSL projector focus valid range was the real 
reason for that PR and i did apply it to out main code (for now branch 
dotnet6)

> I have added a currency service to my grid for testing purpose . Its a separete service with its own database set . I have been running my own local currency with  token money  to collect data using opensim interface for a number of years. When a visitor comes to my land he receive 1000G$ credit that can be attributed  to stuff I made available in my store.   I do this to collect data. This money is only token and help me experiement with opensim money interface with visitors.  Even if those visitors are Globit or Podex client their money cant be use in my grid and their account credit value is not reflected in the opensim user interface when rezzing in my regions. The pay action only substract token form the credit I made available to then and populate my database with statistics.

> Contrary to SL which provide the currency service,  in opensim case,  grid owner is only connecting the service between either Podex or Globit users depending on the service  he decides to implement. Their can be only one service per grid as its a server service like grid registration and not a simulator service like object rezzing . The user of currency service  must register with Podex or Globit.  They are customers of these business not the grid owner. The grid owner does not receive any compensation to provide access to these business services. This is  clear in the binding relation with these business  when users register with them . And it should be clear to sellers too as to the implecation of conducting a business using internet in general be the web or opensim.
