[Opensim-users] toward a more simple first time log in

[Karen Palen]

I don't know about the SL viewer restrictions, but a much simpler
strategy would be to use something like the Imprudence viewer which
includes a Grid Manager!

Many of the newer viewers (like Imprudence) include other features which
are useful on OpenSim.
