Other News
Hamlet at New World Notes points us to a job listing that suggests the Lab is considering developing a viewer for iOS and Android. See Linden Lab Creating IOS & Android Versions Of SL, Job Listing Suggests. The job listing is here: Senior Mobile App Dev.
Some points in the listing lead to speculation the iOS and Android support would be a server side render streamed to the devices. A Bright Canopy sort of thing. If that is the direction, would it be a monthly charged service or a Premium benefit?
Yes, the Lab are considering options for a mobile client – Ebbe, Oz and Grumpity talked about it at the SL15B Meet the Lindens event.
Will it be a streamed solution? Possibly. That’s also under consideration, possibly delivered through a web browser, a-la the Pelican project of a few years back.
