Introduction

The groups implementation found here for OpenSim, and recently submitted to the OpenSim main trunk as "XmlRpcGroups" and "XmlRpcGroupsMessaging" is a simple rough implementation of SL style groups for use with LL based viewers.

The main development trunk for the project is here and can be viewed under the Source Tab.

Progress

4/24/09 - Cross non-neighbor region messaging now seems to be working correctly.

4/23/09 - The XmlRpcGroups module has been accepted as part of the main OpenSim SVN.

Installation

Please see the OpenSim.ini.example file for the Groups section to enable it for your region(s).

XmlRpc Service

This implementation requires an XmlRpc service to a datastore. A reference implementation in PHP is provided in the source trunk here. You will also need to create the MySQL tables with the provided groups.sql file.

Please see: http://code.google.com/p/flotsam/source/browse/#svn/trunk/Flotsam/Servers/XmlRpcGroupsServer

Support

Developers, testers and users of the XmlRpcGroups system can often be found on freenode in the #osgroups channel.
