[Opensim-users] Any plans on supporting the display of web pages?

[Robert Klein]

Hey Charles,
What about being able to display an actual web page in realtime like the
realxtend viewer does? I have several of the static "web page on a prim"
boards using picidai.net running on my company's internal opensim, but after
playing with the functionality of realxtend.. well what we have in opensim
does not compare. In this day and age having the ability to at least view a
functioning web page in real time and see it updating is crucial to
business/educational users. Being able to interact with that web page would
be incredible. VNC would be cool too. 

I know there are plenty of work arounds for emulating this functionality, it
would be great to just have it built-in. I don't want to go the route of
realxtend due to it not running on a*nix server, plus different users with
different graphics cards get much different experiences. 

Is anyone even working on this kind of functionality in opensim/hippo?

-Robert
