<body class='hmmessage'>Basically, the xml2 format is just a rearrangement of some nodes, to make loading/saving a bit easier.<BR>
<BR>
We have been discussing a xml3 format in throes and fits, but never got anywhere.<BR>
<BR>
One of the properties of xml3 would be (optionally) not to include id's at all.<BR>
<BR>
Then such a load/save file would be truly portable.<BR><BR>
In Tribal Server, we actually support loading content off the web into regions, and we have to re-set all the guids in all the objects on each fetch, because they are fetched as new objects into new contexts, and owner et c has to be re-set on all nodes.<BR><BR>
That is what really should be the base scenario for loading/fetching, ie, no id data at all.<BR>

Maybe another optional <BR>> flag to change all three UUIDs to the region owner UUID?<BR>> <BR>> Ai<BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> Opensim-dev mailing list<BR>> Opensim-dev@lists.berlios.de<BR>> https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/opensim-dev<BR><BR></body>
