> <BR>> Thank you for your reply regarding My hopes and plans for CentralGrid.<BR>> <BR>> As you know, I am offering free access and use of my CentralGrid parcel <BR>> (located on one of the AVC Sims) to anyone involved with scripting and <BR>> the scripting language for OpenSim and SecondLife (details below).<BR>> <BR>> I am (compared to anyone with the skills to actually create OpenSim <BR>> code) a newbie, but I believe in OpenSim. In fact, I believe that most <BR>> everyone may soon have their own SIM and I believe they may actually use <BR>> a SIM as their own primary 'homepage' -- instead of anything else (like <BR>> facebook, etc.).<BR>> <BR>> So, being a bit of an adventurer, I am determined to participate in the <BR>> growth and future direction of OpenSim in whatever positive way I can.<BR>> <BR>> To that end, I have purchased a small parcel in CentralGrid which I will <BR>> devote to Scripters and those in the OpenSim development process. And I <BR>> have also arranged to control a 1/4 COMMERCIAL SIM there as well. I <BR>> have also created a group on secondlife named CentralScripting (which I <BR>> will replicate into CentralGrid when groups are activated there).<BR>> <BR>> I am offering Free Access and Free Space for storefront displays, office <BR>> space, and Building/Sandbox to anyone who is willing to:<BR>> [a] Join the SL Group named CentralScripting; <BR>> [b] on the OpenSim dev mailing list and most importantly<BR>> [c] willing to work and bring about scripted content in CentralGrid as <BR>> well as other Metaverses - as they become stable.<BR>> [d] share the parcel's resources equitably with other interested <BR>> scripters and developers.<BR>> <BR>> Of course, if this offer is vastly oversubscribed then all those who <BR>> subscribe will have to meet and determine ways to share the resources <BR>> fairly - I feel certain that can be achieved.<BR>> <BR>> My ultimate goal is to always be able to establish a presence for the <BR>> members of CentralScripting - in any metaverse which has sufficient size <BR>> and stability to need scripted content for it's residents and businesses.<BR>> <BR>> Obviously there are scripting language issues and content portability <BR>> issues to be resolved as the new Open metaverses grow. There also are <BR>> Scripting language capabilities which need to be <BR>> created/improved/expanded. Additionally, most builders, scriptors, and <BR>> other 'content' artists I have spoken with indicate issues with portable <BR>> inventory and copyright/licensing. <BR>> <BR>> These are ALL Real issues which need real solutions. And, I am looking <BR>> for people who are willing to work through these issues towards the goal <BR>> of resolving them all.<BR>> <BR>> So, here's a recap of my offer:<BR>> Join the centralScripting group in SecondLife, then create an avatar <BR>> name on CentralGrid. Then participate in the goals I have outlined <BR>> above -- If you or your associates will agree and do these things then I <BR>> will grant free access to my parcel in CentralGrid for CentralScripting <BR>> members until March 31st, 2008. Additionally, I am interested in <BR>> extending this offer into the future, but will have to determine the <BR>> best way to fund its tier costs after March 31st. Larger parcels are <BR>> available for this endeavor in the future if it is successful.<BR>> <BR>> Interested? Obviously this offer is made to foster good works so anyone <BR>> found to be causing grief in central grid or to the SL group named <BR>> CentralScripting, will be subject to careful review.<BR>> <BR>> Please forward this offer of mine to anyone whom you feel can be part of <BR>> the Metaverse solution as well as the OpenSim Developers mailing lists.<BR>> <BR>> Any questions? <BR>> <BR>> Regards,<BR>> <BR>> Gobi Greenwood, SL Avatar<BR>> Gobi Greenwood, CG Avatar<BR>> GobiG-SL@Earthlink.Net<BR><BR></body>
