[Opensim-users] Open Web Interface projects...

[Olish Newman]

Hello !

At the beginning I wanted to create a web interface to manage OpenSim, 
but I saw on the OpenSim wiki some web interface projects already in 
development.
So I thought I should only develop classes. I choosen PHP instead of 
another language because of its simplicity to be integrated in other 
systems against languages like Python that are not always available for 
simple website hosting or need something to be installed.

Then, I started a Google Code project 
(http://code.google.com/p/opensimtools/) to host my code and leave it 
available for anyone under the BSD Licence. I named it OpenSim Tools, 
this consists in easy-to-use PHP Classes to interact with OpenSim and 
its environment. Currently, only a RemoteAdmin class have been 
developped, but I plan to develop more according to the current needs. 
That's why Any contribution, idea and wishes are welcome. As many web 
interfaces projects are in development, may be can I help each other 
with such PHP classes ?
The goal is making simple and easy-to-use, but powerful functions.

Is someone interrested in such classes ? What are the current needs for 
you concerning OpenSim management ?

I also thought about a way to use such a PHP Class and the Remote region 
configuration webloader integrated in OpenSim to make easier simulator 
and region management.

Thanks !
