Something for the Weekend

 Next weekend is going to be a busy one for opensim - isn't it almost always? For starters, it's the Opensimulator Community Conference held on a dedicated grid - this is the 13th year for the event that brings together educators and developers, with speakers like Valibrarian Gregg, Lone Wolf, and Sally Cherry.

Rhiannon Chatnoir and the team at Avacon organize the OSCC every year

On Saturday at 12.00noon SLT there's a panel presentation all about the Hypergrid International Expo! Mal Burns, James Atlloud and I will be discussing how the HIE event came into being, some details about the history, technical aspects, and aims of the event. SO if you're available to come over and hear it, check the HG Addresses at the bottom of this post. OSCC events are filmed and streamed in Youtube also. Subscribe if you haven't yet done so, and visit the OSCC Expo Zone 2 to see more information about HIE. 

There's more going on this weekend though. 

It's the final party on Discovery grid, next Saturday. They have 4 DJs lined up. from 12 noon SLT, to serenade the grid offline, or should I say transitioning  to O3DE. 

So near yet so far... Discovery City is off limits

To non tech ears like mine, that sounds a bit like something involving hormone patches, but it really isn't.  Anyway Craig Denimore, Mike Chase, Calliope Andel and  Arathorn Dragomir will be doing the honors, so much fun and music and chat can be expected. The event will be happening on sim Seattle. 

The welcome sim Discovery City threw up a  'no furrner' warning when I tried to land there but don't worry, sim Seattle is still open to hg visitors. The party will be happening in the Mural Amphitheater, which I couldn't find, but it's a small region so just follow your nose on the day! Check the discoverygrid website for more details.

Finally, if you're already in the mood for Xmas, there's always the option of some festive dancing - Saturday December 7 is the Pangea party, on sim NorthPole - the tunes begin at 10am SLT
