[Opensim-users] How can we bridge the gap between opensim developers and end users?

[Nick Zwart - 3DLES]

Hi Ramesh

Your application really looks great. It is even overwhelming to see what
can be done with it.
At the moment I would not have any idea on how to broaden this. Myabe
because I am very impressed by the things that already can be done.
Specially the placing of object and rotating them is impressive.
Also the boards you can use for displaying web content are fantastic.

Is this app available for others also?

Regards,

Nick Zwart
