2 ABOUT IMPRUDENCE 2
3 3 ABOUT META7
4 Imprudence is an open source metaverse viewer project based on 4
5 the Second Life Viewer source. 5 Meta 7 is a Virtual World loosely based on OpenSimulator core
6 6 server code.
7 The goal of Imprudence is to greatly improve the usability of 7
8 the Viewer through community involvement, thoughtful design, 8 The meta 7 Viewer is our open source client application designed
9 modern development methods, and a pro-change atmosphere. 9 for the world, based on both Imprudence (an open source metaverse
10 10 viewer project) and the Second Life viewer.
11 For more information about the rationale, goals, and methods 11

20 20 ABOUT META-IMPY
21 21
22 The latest source code for the Imprudence Viewer is always 22 The old meta 7 viewer was based on an ancient version of Emerald. We
23 available at: 23 need an update. After much discussion and evaluation, and too much
24 24 delay, I decided to fork and modify the Imprudence 1.4.0 code base
25 http://github.com/jacek/imprudence/tree/master 25 to our requirements. Thus the meta-impy viewer was born. This time
26 26 around I will try to keep up with the upstream changes.
27 27
28 LICENSE 28 I agree with the Imprudence manifesto. I also have my own ideas
29 29 about how code should be written, and how the mess that is the LL
30 All code is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public 30 code base should be morphed into something sane. I don't think that
31 License version 2.0 (plus a special exception). 31 moving to the SL 2 code base is such a good idea. Even now I still
32 32 see problems from the move to the SL 1.23 code base. I thought
33 See linden/LICENSE-source.txt for details. 33 moving from 1.22 was a bad idea to. LL has us playing catch up at
34 34 their chosen pace. We should just fix up their horrid code and
35 35 streak ahead of them.
36 DISCLAIMERS AND NOTICES 36
37 37 Since this is being done for meta7, and meta7 does not care about LL
38 Second Life is a registered trademark of Linden Research, Inc. 38 TPVP, somethings are just going to be changed specifically to suit
39 39 the meta7 grid. On the other hand, there are some things we might
40 Imprudence is in no way affiliated with Linden Research, Inc. 40 implement that are of general usefulness, or already on the Impy
41 wish list. I will try to write them such that Impy developers can
42 cherry pick those things, then let the Impy developers know.
43
44 Note, since we don't care about LL TPVP, it's likely that meta7
45 viewers will not be TPVP compliant. Meta 7 viewers are made for use
46 on the meta7 grid. They will probably work on the SL grid, but that
47 is not important to us, and not recommended by us. Use at your own
48 risk on the SL grid.
