Well, we really have that, and I've never thought it's something that needs to be maintained by the system. It's something that comes out of human interaction, and it's just something people know. For example, Farallon Greyskin's name is "Seal", and in RL I've been "Argent" since about '83, regardless of my real name, but I don't need my real world ID to match that. Some people change their real name to match (I know one guy who did that legally), others just use their handles in conversation, in the appropriate context. I wouldn't use "Argent" at work, for example. But we have it now, we'll see how many people use it the way LL expects. The other thing SL needs is a 1:many relationship between (1) and (2), so that Argent David and Argent Stonecutter are both avatars associated with the same account... like they are in Avatars United. _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
