Usually development and publishing companies have an anonymous contact
page on their website, and no easy way of getting to know the identity
of any of their employees (besides the executives). And this is for
privacy and competition reasons. It should not be any different for

There's a warranty disclaimer in the GPL, while that doesn't protect
developers from liability for active malice on their part, it does
protect them from any harm caused by bugs.

to warrant it against all possible damages, as the

Given this setup. It would look like this:

That's peer to peer.
Let's say somebody wants to setup a 3D website inside one. They don't
want to go through ICANN because it's "virtual" just like "virtual
linden" currency.
They want "http://media.
I have been experimenting with combining and/or offloading physics
simulations on physics capable clients (not LL based) with OpenSim, but
nothing has been released as open source as of yet. It's not clear to me how
a new TLD would affect this though, or why it might be required.

If there is no need for a grid server, then there would be no need for a

I see the issue of opensim that wants to say "can only connect client to

new TOS in attempts to control TPVs.

Linden Lab neither supports standalone nor 64bit. (Snowglobe is
often broken for standalone because it's never tested by LL
