PyOGP

Overview

What Is It

Pyogp is an open source project between Linden Lab and AWG to support the testing of the Open Grid Protocol (OGP). Written in Python, Pyogp will consist initially of a client library and test functionality that will enable testing of OGP enabled virtual worlds like Second Life and compatible OpenSim implementations. These components will expand as the effort matures.

Project Status

• Client library and overall package architectural decisions have largely been formalized, and client library development continues nicely. Login and message parsing (udp) are well along their way, Teleport is up next.
• Test harness structure is being formalized, and test cases are being defined and built as we speak

In World Meetings

Pyogp/In-World-Meetings - visit this page to see the agendas and discussions that took place
We're going to start having daily meetings at "infinity is full of stars" in Levenhall at 9:30AM SLT each day. These meetings are for the PyOGP coders to meet and discuss design, process and status. In the near term, these are likely to be "somewhat beefy" meetings where design issues are discussed and differences hammered out. In the longer term, these will hopefully be more "Agile Stand-Up" style meetings where we discuss: a. what we've done in the last 24 hours, b. what we're going to do in the next 24 and c. what we're blocked on.
