I don't particularly care about the details of the group feature
design, and, as with everything else, I don't think there's "one right
thing". In fact, I think this is one of those features where variety
and competition are the right approach. <br>
My only concern is the architecture. All social networking stuff (IM,
friends,
groups and others) should be completely removed from region servers.
They don't belong there, it's just wrong. Move all that stuff to
interactions between the client and those services directly. We already
have way too much of it in region servers, which should be moved out,
let's not have any more of that. This is where I think we should break
from OpenSim out-of-the-box being an SL clone to it being something
else that's much better.<br>

But we should learn from the groups mistake secondlife has made.<br>
<br>
Think it was a mistake they use the groups for object permissions AND
also for community targets.<br>
<br>
So I think there should be different group systems for different use.<br>
<br>
One groups system for comminity building with im, notices, polls, roles
and groups profiles. Without a max group limit.<br>
<br>
And one group system for the object permission with an groups inventory
in it. Withouth the community building things. These object group
system should have a max limit.<br>
