<body class='hmmessage'>Another way to go is, of course, to dissolve the 'grid' into a massively parallell set of distributed services - ie, you never 'grid jump' at all, merely take your presence into another context, bringing your particular palette of services with you.<BR><BR>
The whole notion 'domains' is just a tiny step away from the 'monolithic grid' - which is probably why they chose it in the first place.<BR>
<BR>
Unfortunately, we started out mimicking the SL grid arch, and now we've gotten kind of stuck in it, even as LL themselves are trying to break free from it.<BR>
