The motivation for writing this tutorial and others to come, is realizing that we all start out as newbies, and need help sometimes with emerging technology. This page is to assist those unsatisfied with currently implemented virtual worlds a way to express themselves and create without needless constraints or interference. Consider OpenSim a refuge from poorly scheduled maintenance cycles and general inept design and implementation.

I’m glad OpenSim is here to allow that freedom. Imagine if the web were a monopoly of badly-made browsers and server software. We’d never have what we do today.
