Re: [opensource-dev] Third party viewer policy

2010-02-23 Thread Brent Tubbs
For a while I've been batting around the idea of creating an SVN-bot to enable much-improved version control for inworld scripts; a must-have when you're developing as part of a team. The same-creator policy on content export would seem to prohibit that though. I realize that you probably don't w

That looks very neat! SNOW-375 talks a lot about the MonoVida viewer, but I don't see any mention of that in your email below. Is MonoVida needed to try this out? I'm interested in just poking at the REST interface a bit with some raw http. I'll see if Opensource Obscure's build instructions on
