Excellent to hear that!<BR>
<BR>
Basically, I was thinking this would be an excellent opportunity for each grid to further OpenSim and themselves by <BR>
<BR>
* take the opprotunity to demo and publicize noteworthy services or content.<BR>
and/or<BR>
* set up what we call a 'hypergridded dmz storefront' - in effect, a public standalone region not connected to the main grid services.<BR>
and definitively<BR>
* blog about this joyous occasion, each telling their own OpenSim story.<BR>
<BR>
This would allow each grid to participate in the hypergrid linkfest and birthday celebration club-hopping schemes without jeopardizing any of their content.<BR>
<BR>
On the storefront, you could typically set some demo content up<BR>
* demoing your grid and what's going on there<BR>
* establishing a media parcel url going to a live voice feed so that you could hold voice demonstrations, dj sessions and panel discussions on topics relevant to your grid.<BR>* some avatar appearance/merchandise items that you are ready to give to the public domain<BR>
<BR>
This is a great opportunity to acquaint yourself with what it means to run a hypergrid region; and we hope to scare a bunch of ugly bugs out of their holes as a result.<BR>
<BR>
Regardless,<BR>
If you're planning on doing anything for OpenSims second birthday, be sure to post it on<BR>

If there is no heading suitable for your project, just make one - it's a wiki!<BR> <BR>Best regards,<BR>Stefan Andersson<BR>Tribal Media AB<BR><BR>

With<BR>> some demo content allowing people to toy around with various aspects of<BR>> opensim.<BR>> * You grid people, couldn't you set up a region where a group of people<BR>> could work cooperative to make a demo 'welcome' island, and then just<BR>> save-oar it so we can distribute it with the core distro? So noobs could<BR>> just load-oar demo.xml and hey presto!<BR>> <BR>> And as an added bonus;<BR>> <BR>> * We should have a simple 'create avatar' as part of the opensim ecosystem.<BR>> With this I mean something in the 'register user' or 'create user' that<BR>> allows to specify a template for that avatar.<BR>> * Tribal just recently added support for inventory cloning and wearing into<BR>> the trunk, could you php registration guys (yo redux!) work with us to make<BR>> a nice 'choose avatar' step in the registration process?<BR>> <BR>> Here's saying skol, salut, chin-chin in anticipation of our third year<BR>> together. This is going to be a wonderful year!
