[OpenVerse] OpenVerse Rapid Transit.

[cruise@openverse.org]

Heya,

   In line with echo (I think) and many other people's ideas for an OpenVerse 
master server where servers can register themselves with.. I've got a good idea 
for a fun implementation of this....

   Introducing the OV Bus... YOU get on the bus.. which is a room in itself and 
it travels between server to server, annoucning it's stops.. When you get off 
the bus server, you join the room...

   The announcements could be part of the metaserver protocol where it would 
include an image and it would include a description of what the area is 
about... not every room may want to have a "bus stop". Your bus stop would be 
the main portion of your group of servers.

   For me, I would make an entrance for my zoo.. the Bus would stop there and 
from then on you could wander to the set of rooms that is my zoo.

  In order to make it more "realistic" the people registering with the transit 
system will not even need to make a link back to it.. When the bus "Stops" at 
their location, it in itself will be a link to get on the bus.. So you spend a 
bit of time waiting for the bus to arrive but with a good number of busses 
running on a good schedule I think that this would be a really fun way of 
linking everyone together!

   Ideas?
