daniel--biased against, eh, well, I think we have most insight into the machinations at SL (or did) as oppossed to other software. I am critical but actually I doubt anyone carea. I think it is more interesting to look at OpenSim and other stuff like Unity and even Blue Mars. Btw, the SL wiki stuff is out of date as always with LL stuff. Roadmaps are about making some general commitments to when stuff will be released not techy info. Usually it is a page or two to show where development effort is being aimed. My sense is that LL is focused on packaging their server-side stuff for enterprise deployment, land sales systems, content censorship systems/age-play, viewer tweaks. there won't be anything on web integration/APIs, increasing avatars on a region, add meshes, improving sales tools for merchants. There won't be any mass marketing efforts. 6 million active users--we would have a lot to gain if that were to happen--but I don't see it happening. But maybe things will change for them when all these things M talks about actually show up. Maybe they will even start to publish the land sales data again. It is just hard to wait around and live on vague promises.
