Description
"OpenSim is the open source implementation of Second Life (but using .NET, alas); its existence is what makes the new Open Grid possible. Without the open source behind it, this would simply be a closed approach similar to old-style online services such as AOL or CompuServe. Linden Lab's decision to open up its protocols means that there is a chance to create a virtual world equivalent of the Internet, which anyone can use, and where anyone can contribute."
