Announcing the Overte Foundation for OpenSimulator

Today, the OpenSimulator developers (including me!) are pleased to announce that we are setting up the Overte Foundation, a non-profit organization for OpenSimulator and potentially other open-source virtual environment projects and components. One of the main reasons for creating such a foundation is so that we can drop the 6 month contribution barrier between OpenSimulator…

My first time Hypergrid standalone

Okay, so I know this will come as a bit of a surprise to some, but up till now I’ve never run a Hypergrid-enabled OpenSimulator instance.  Oh sure, I’ve looked at the documentation, read and reviewed the code and even written blog posts about it, but I’ve never found the time to actually put theory…

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Justin Clark-Casey, an OpenSim core developer and professional software engineer.

On the Linden Lab grid I go by the name of Lulworth Beaumont. On other grids I'm just plain old Justin Clark-Casey.

I'm currently working as a freelance consultant specializing in OpenSimulator and related technologies. If you're interested in learning more then please read the Hire Me page.

I've also written a paper on distributed virtual environments, which examines how virtual worlds could become more like the web, rather than individual silos of users and content.

I often attend the OpenSim Office Hours on a Tuesday on Wright Plaza at OSgrid.org
