The point of "come and<br>break stuff hour" would be to do the opposite.<br><br>Also, right now the answer to "what hardware do I need to run<br>OpenSim?" is "it depends". It would be great if we could test various<br>combinations of hardware/.NET/Mono builds/etc. and get some more<br>concrete info on what works, what's mediocre, and what fails.<br><br>I haven't been to the "Q&A / Testing" hour on OSGrid in a while, but<br>when I did attend it was focused on Q&A.<br><br>Say, Thursdays @ 0300 UTC?
