on grid systems).  This exchange is done using

under the covers to log in your parallel avatar to

could be quite useful in certain situations,

something in an OpenSim standalone but you still want

windows.

libsecondlife/libomv but I disclaim any loss/damage that occurs

to use it (which unfortunately rules out 0.6.2).
