Justin Clarke Casey 550018f02d * As part of the region registration process, the grid service now requests the status of the region using the region http uri just passed in
* If the status cannot be retrieved, then the region startup will terminate.
* The aim of this is for earlier detection of situations where the region can send messages out but cannot accept incoming requests (often due to firewall issues)
* This is currently an extremely simplistic check which completely trusts whatever http uri is given by the region
* This contact may be problematic, though since the user service needs to be able to contact the region http uri, it doesn't seem unreasonable for the grid to have to be able to do so too at this stage
* This change will require a prebuild

Welcome to OpenSim! 

Version 0.5

== OVERVIEW ==

OpenSim is a BSD Licensed Open Source project to develop a functioning
virtual worlds server platform capable of supporting multiple clients
and servers in a heterogeneous grid structure. OpenSim is written in
C#, and can run under Mono or the Microsoft .NET runtimes.

This is considered an alpha release.  Some stuff works, a lot
doesn't.  If it breaks, you get to keep *both* pieces.

== Installation on Windows ==

Prereqs:

 * Load OpenSim.sln into Visual Studio .NET and build the solution.
 * chdir bin
 * OpenSim.exe

See configuring OpenSim

== Installation on Linux ==

Prereqs:
 * Mono >= 1.2.3.1
 * Nant >= 0.85
 * sqlite3

From the distribution type:
 * nant
 * cd bin
 * mono ./OpenSim.exe

See configuring OpenSim

== Configuring OpenSim ==

When OpenSim starts for the first time, you will be prompted with a
series of questions that look something like:

[09-17 03:54:40] DEFAULT REGION CONFIG: Simulator Name [OpenSim Test]:

At each of these you must provide you own value or just hit enter to
take the default (in this case "OpenSim Test").

YOUR SIM WILL NOT BE STARTED UNTIL YOU ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS

Once you are presented with a prompt that looks like:

  Region# :

You have successfully started OpenSim.

== Connecting to your OpenSim ==

By default your sim will be running on http://127.0.0.1:9000.  To use
your OpenSim add -loginuri http://127.0.0.1:9000 to your second life
client (running on the same machine as your OpenSim).

== More Information on OpenSim ==

More extensive information on building, running, and configuring
OpenSim, as well as how to report bugs, and participate in the OpenSim
project can always be found at http://opensimulator.org.

Thanks for trying OpenSim, we hope it was a pleasant experience.
