Subject: Distracted by pie



*Taps on the screen* anyone out there?



In response to the occasional "What's happening with Virtual World

Watch?" "Is it coming back?" "Where have the snapshots gone?"

questions...



Nothing really much has happened with the (funding absent) VWW so far

in 2011 - in fact, the last post is from December 2010.



Round about the end of last year, the website was hacked (badly, as

some folk saw) and partially rebuilt, though a lot of the content is

still missing. A full rebuild, though attempted several times, didn't

work out; my lack of technical skills, lack of patience, and rickety

old wordpress versions were not a combinations. It also didn't help

that I ended up spending an unexpected four months over several trips

in the USA, and the ramifications of all that caused spare time plans

to be torn up (funded work is ringfenced; the rest is on a "when

there's time" basis). I also spent too much time being distracted by



http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=pie&w=87775696%40N00&s=rec



However, the newest version of Wordpress (3.2.1), along with other

upgrades, a change of package and update procedures, has helped

tremendously and stuff appears to (finally) work now. The domains

(we're also .com now) and hosting have been renewed for another year,

and we also have a bit of informal technical support in the form of my

domestic boss (who is a US college systems librarian in real life).



Apart from one last platform memory problem, we can put the remainder

of the content back in over the next few weeks, most importantly being

all the snapshots. This will be a relief, as it was unnerving to look

at the webstats for the first time in a loooong time and see that the

site still, oddly, gets a lot of traffic.



More good news. As have said recently, VWW (finally) has a confirmed

small amount of independent funding to do one snapshot. We aren't

restrained to doing a standard PDF/RTF report, so am thinking of a

possibly better way of doing both the data collection and publishing

the results. One thing for definite is that we want to avoid the quite

ridiculous problems that bedevilled the last two snapshots, and were a

disincentive to do any more. The snapshot has to go live on here by

Friday December 9th 2011 by the latest. Also, it'll include Ireland as

there were a few requests from there to participate in any future

snapshots.



In more good news, we're also negotiating to do an e-book on examples

of virtual world uses in education, which looks promising. This won't

come out (or, digitally appear) until deep into 2012, partially as we

need to fill in a lot of knowledge gaps and catch up. That's another

incentive to go hunt and find examples of virtual world use.



Speaking of which, we've been quietly having a look around UK academia

of late, and it's quite interesting, after an extended period of not

looking at virtual world stuff, to see what's changed. Unless that pie

has zapped my memory, there seems to be some new/unfamiliar names who

are doing things in both HE and FE; but more using OpenSim and

similar, than Second Life. That's just an impression, but will be

asking these to hopefully explain what they're doing. I'd hazard a

guess, but there seems as much, if not more, open virtual world

activity in UK HE/FE now than there was in 2008 or 2009.



In Second Life I'm still Silversprite Helsinki, and can be found on

various islands when not based in the ruins of the conference centre

building on Eduserv Island.



So, timetable for VWW 2.0:



To end September: Rebuild this website + put remainder of content,

especially snapshots, back in. Work out format of data collection and

dissemination for next snapshot.

Early October: Sort out social media aspects of VWW 2.0.

October to November: Data collection for autumn 2011 snapshot.

November: Finally get some decent hair for my avatar.

Early December: Summary (format unsure) of snapshot.



Time for some pie.

Subject: Re: Mini-conference?



This meeting took place but for various reasons was rather sparsely attended. It was, however, reasonably productive and the principal take-home messages were:







* OpenSim 7.2 (the one with thoroughly modern mesh) now has a release candidate



* It was agreed to establish an "official" e-mail list for OpenSim educators -- you can enjoy lots of test posts by subscribing at http://list.opensim-edu.org/listinfo.cgi/education-opensim-edu.org (it's moderated by the ineffable Fleep Tuque so at least one person knows what they're doing)



* AvaCon (another Fleep co-production) is considering running an event for OpenSim educators inworld, possibly in February



* Some thought is being given to an OpenSim Quickstart Kit for educators and this is being discussed on the list



* There seems to be demand in some quarters for another of these meetings next month. If it's ongoing, I can only envisage it as some kind of OpenSim Educator Office Hour -- it is also, however, a possible conduit to the core OpenSim developers so may have some strategic value.







Best wishes
