ABOUT META-IMPY
The meta-impy viewer is based on the Imprudence 1.4 viewer -
http://blog.kokuaviewer.org/
I agree with the Imprudence manifesto. I also have my own ideas
about how code should be written, and how the mess that is the LL
code base should be morphed into something sane. I don't think that
moving to the SL 2 code base is such a good idea. Even now still see
problems from the move to the SL 1.23 code base. I thought moving
from 1.22 was a bad idea to. LL has us playing catch up at their
chosen pace. We should just fix up their horrid code and streak
ahead of them.
Mostly this viewer development is for me to scratch my own itches.
There are some things I might implement that are of general
usefulness, or already on the Impy wish list. I will try to write
them such that Impy developers can cherry pick those things, then
let the Impy developers know. Other developers may join my efforts
if they wish, if their itches match my own. We can scratch each
others backs. B-)
I don't really care about SL or LL any more. I don't care for
OpenSim that much either, but at least that provides a wider
ecosystem. So meta-impy will try to be more general purpose. The LL
code base is full of assumptions that it's running on the SL grid.
These assumptions I'll remove one by one. A lot of policies LL has I
disagree with, and I'm not much interested in enshrining those
policies in code.
Note, since I don't care about the LL TPVP, it's likely that the
meta-impy viewer will not be TPVP compliant. Meta-impy is made for
use on OpenSim grids. It will probably work on the SL grids, but
that is not important to me, and not recommended by me. Use at your
own risk on the SL grids.
