[sldev] Browser in Secondlife Viewer

Due to the licensing requirements of the GPLv2, As far as I know OnRez
must provide the source code of their secondlife viewer modifications
to anyone. As far as I can tell (IANAL) they are in violation of the
GPL by not providing it. I spent a couple minutes looking around their
viewer related pages and I was unable to find either the viewer
source, a diff between the LL version, or even the short or long GPL
license text itself.

I suggest you contact their support department and request either the
diff from OnRez-1.18.2.1.15 and LL-1.18.2, or the whole build tree.

(Note that they also provide a separate HUD object -- this would NOT
be included unless they decide to include it. As far as I can tell,
they shouldn't be required to.)

P.S: I fixed the contents of your email. ;)
