[Opensim-users] IAR files - question about uploading

[Justin Clark-Casey]

I'm not sure what you're talking about.  1, 3, 4, 5 are already taken care of by iar upload.  This would be an entirely 
different mechanism from the inventory item upload currently implemented in some viewers (e.g. imprudence).

The harder part is deduping in 2.
