Hey all,

So 'Snowglobe' is the new name we picked for the new viewer we've all 
been working on.  Seemed clever (just think of the Citizen Kane 
references), fun, referential to virtual worlds generally, and something 
that could be effectively mutated for different projects (what you put 
'inside' the snowglobe).  We've registered it and gotten some domains 
(snowglobeproject.org, etc).   Next step for us/LL is to come up with 
some art, and flesh out some usage guidelines.  

So let's start updating the wiki(s) with the new name, and rebranding 
patches also welcome (VWR-13295).   Also any initial design ideas or 
mockups for art would be great.  We're trying to enlist some internal LL 
folks for art treatments, but anything you want to throw in the ring is 
welcome. 

Philip
