There is also IClientFileTransfer (and LLFileTransfer) that I moving all the err client file transfer code. But thats still a work in progress.<br><br><b><i>Charles Krinke <cfk@pacbell.net></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <style type="text/css"><!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --></style><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><div>This seems like a capital idea to me and will allow OpenSim to more easily have modules added for other, non-secondlife clients in the future in addition to making the current modrex project move more smoothly.

There are still 27 LSL functions in the "NotImplemented" state and even modest patches to have just some functionality would help. I would really like to get all the "NotImplemented" out of the source so we can declare the first phase of LSL implementation done in accordance with Tedd Hansen's vision.<br></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> "Frisby, Adam" <adam@deepthink.com.au><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> "opensim-dev@lists.berlios.de"
