[sldev] [RFC] Object to Object Instant Messaging Proposal

[Erik Anderson]

LL appears to have some issues with having O2O communication within the grid
without the assistance of an outside website.  I'm guessing that the outside
website requirement is there to limit the amount of bandwidth that is
required to handle requests, otherwise the grid could find that it has been
DDOS'ed by itself or something.  We have llHTTPRequest that will send
requests out from the grid to an external website, XML-RPC which will
receive requests from an external website into the grid, and llEmail which
will send a message between two objects within 5-120sec of the request.  And
yes, there has been a block placed to prevent llHTTPRequest from simulating
an XML-RPC request back into the grid.
