Firstly I'd like to say the work looks beautiful and first rate, with great steps in innovation.
However I would say that the Tut exhibition is already available in SL at the Dynasty site and museum. Bea refers to the new rezz sim being named as egyptian dynasty, again i think very close to an already respected and similar sim, ran by rl archaeologists.
If commercial groups aim to 'jump' on what is there and 'dump' what is not successful we risk on sl dissencentivizing academics in their field if more polished and professionals can then replicate current sl themes. Once you lose the academeics who make sims for love of topic, you are left with companies who may keep or drop sims dependant on churn. If its not there , you lose both sims that cover your interest.
Maybe Rezz could work with those in the field they are moving into?
