I just found the older libpurple discussion (in opensim-dev) on this in
google cache.<br>
<br>
It looks like it came down to a question about GPL code repository
maintained by OpenSim devs.<br>

Unless, of course, they went lgpl? But.. I doubt it.

<pre wrap="">I highly suggest to look into libpurple to avoid reinventing any steps if
group chat gets moved off the region server. It could be all client based.
The only thing that probably would hold that back is complete anonymity
since libpurple would only be as anonymous as the services it connects and
uses. I don't think complete anonymity will be needed among friends, and
among friends is where libpurple can help accelerate implementation.
Don't take this as a suggestion to put aside what has been developed.

I think the issue is going to be one of "evolution" and "compatibility".
Many would say we want SL client compatibility for as long as possible.
Given that, I suspect we will need to use the SL client means and perhaps
evolve a second means as time goes on.

+1 Diva, I totally agree with getting these tools off the region server.

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.
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.

<pre wrap="">Yeah groups support is a pre.
But we should learn from the groups mistake secondlife has made.
Think it was a mistake they use the groups for object permissions AND
also for community targets.
So I think there should be different group systems for different use.
One groups system for comminity building with im, notices, polls,
roles and groups profiles. Without a max group limit.
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.
