actually, I'm not sure that most -or even many- people are interested in the open source aspect of it. It seems like too many people are more interested in finding a way to turn opensim into some sort of cash cow.
Despite how people have portrayed me, I'm not anti-commercial; however I think it's a mistake to treat opensim as if it's Secondlife -we should be figuring out what OpenSIM's UNIQUE strengths are and build those up so that the platform will survive the coming paradigm switch away from desktops and towards tablets
Instead, people seem more interested in running around chasing pennies and playing Anshe Chung and thinking in the short term.
