[Opensim-users] funding for future internet / VW app dev

[Toni Alatalo]

for startups and SMEs (less than 250 employees)

the technologies under the FI umbrella include also many HTTP / REST
backends etc. so using e.g. the geographical Point Of Interest (POI)
server, or the Context Broker or whatever that the other chapters (not
realXtend) have there, is normal, easy & straightforward from
Opensimulator too if you prefer. it's a requirement for the funding to
use some FI tech. so what I mean is that you can easily use many of
them e.g. with http from Opensimulator. even perhaps their object
store for assets, dunno.

what we provide there is the Tundra server & WebTundra
webgl+websockets client, plus some other related things (like those
POI and GIS, and AR etc.).

we'll be happy to try clarify if there are questions about the funding etc!

Cheers,
