hello world
i have released a new d4os version.
i did not have time to rewrite everyting during 2011 because irl job, but i could do it now :)
this version is still using drupal 6 (i would write a d7 version later, but i dont know when)
this version was completely rewritten from scratch.
the new code is lighter and the grid users are separated from the drupal users so people can register on the website without creating an account on the grid.
this new version is no more compatible with opensim < 0.7
the osmodules were removed from the code and this is better to use the ones provided on the opensim forge.
this version can use a direct database acces or use a REST communication between the drupal website and a special code made for codeigniter to put on the database grid server.
i hope that this code will be useful for altruist people and that the ones finding bugs will inform me in the github issue queue.

the d4os website was completely redesigned to be simple http://d4os.org
you can contact me using irc on the freenode server and #d4os channel (don't mind about the channel topic because freenode took the channel back and i can not modify it now :) )
the code can be found here : https://github.com/ssm2017/d4os/tree/2012-d6
be warned that now there are branches for the code :)

Have you started the D7
Have you started the D7 version yet? I saw elsewhere that you wanted to do a complete rewrite for D7, but now you have done one for D6. Are you still planning on rewriting for D7, or is this D6 rewrite a good start?
I really want to try this out, seems you have a lot of bases covered, but I'm using D7.
I might try a direct port of the user integration parts though. That's the bit I desperately need soon. The rest I can wait for. To be clear, I mean letting existing OpenSim users log onto Drupal using their existing OpenSim user name and password. I've never ported a Drupal module before, but I am an experienced coder. Though I don't like PHP coding. lol
While on that subject, and just putting in a feature request. I hope that the D7 version at least lets me have Drupal users that don't automatically have OpenSim access, but can be given that access later. I want the already existing OpenSim users to be able to access Drupal. I'm using two Drupal roles for that. Drupal authenticated users can access Drupal, but not OpenSim. Grid access has to be earned on this private grid, and so I have a Drupal role of "members" to allow grid access.
I've started porting the user
I've started porting the user stuff to D7. The coder module helped me get a head start. Guess I should open an issue on github and we can talk there.
all the code is now in drupal repo
i forgot to mention it but the code was moved to http://drupal.org/project/d4os
drupal 6 and drupal 7 version
the github repo is just used as a backup.
thanks to onefang that gave me the motivation to publish the d7 version and helped me to debug some parts.
