<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hi<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Anyone know what <a
href="http://www.opensim.net"><span style='color:windowtext'>www.opensim.net</span></a>
is all about?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>The short story; It looks to me like
someone (anonymous owner of opensim.net) has hijacked a name (opensim) he or
she may or may not have legal rights to with the (criminal) intent of abusing a
(free) product name for his or her own benefit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>(Yeah, darn those feminists, can’t “he”
just cover both sexes?)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>I really hope this doesn’t mean that core
developers have to spend time on legal issues because some 14 year old wants to
run his/her own site. This is valuable time for professional developers that
can be spent on making OpenSim better instead of bitching to lawyers. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>[09:57:25] <Tedd1> <a
href="http://www.opensim.net/videos/opensim-tutorial-6-basic-avatar"><span
style='color:windowtext'>http://www.opensim.net/videos/opensim-tutorial-6-basic-avatar</span></a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[09:57:28] <Tedd1> whats this? :)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[09:58:05] <Tedd1> or rather this; <a
href="http://www.opensim.net/"><span style='color:windowtext'>http://www.opensim.net/</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:00:26] <sachaMagne_> no idea <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:00:52] <Tedd1> it seems to be
ripping data directly from other sites<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:00:59] <phrearch> hey<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:01:00] <Tedd1> and pretending to
"be" opensim<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:01:25] <Tedd1> view source ->
Public Grid List Sorted <a
href="http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Grid_List/Sorted/Alphabetically"<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:02:25] <sachaMagne_> the
opensimulator list is wrong anywat <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:02:46] <sachaMagne_> if you
select different sorts, you will find different result for the same grid<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:03:15] <Tedd1> page contains RSS
feeds, steals lists from opensimulator.org, copy pastes info and mixes it with
lies and half baked truth without ever mentioning that it is *NOT* opensim<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:03:28] <Tedd1> *RSS feeds from
other pages (of course)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:03:36] <Tedd1> so no actual
contribution, a lot of stealing :)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:04:09] <sachaMagne_> not a
breaking news for RSS aggregator ... :/<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:07:22] <Tedd1> someone should
probably contact the domain owner<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:07:41] <Tedd1> would be really
pittyful if core members had to spend time on legal issues to get some 14 year
old to play nice<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:07:46] <sachaMagne_> i made a
whois and the real owner is hidden<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:08:07] <Tedd1> time that could be
spent on features, bugfixes, etc<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>[10:08:51] <sachaMagne_> no legal
information on the site itself<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Br,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> Tedd<o:p></o:p></span></p>
