[sldev] SNOW-222 : pluginapi in Snowglobe patch ready!

[Moriz Gupte]

Hi there,
This functionality is really one of the keys for many educational
applications, and in times where I am seeing a growing migration of
many US federal clients from SL (after learning what virtual
environments could be and how they could be used for training
etc...ironically in SL) to other platforms such as Nexus and Olive for
reasons we are all aware of, I am hoping such web integration
functionalities get the attention it deserves both within LL and
outside.I deeply appreciate it as I have recently been able to push a
proposal by leaning on this functionality (so  Thanks a lot for your
work, Thanks Aimee T as usual. ).
I have a question: Are we to expect most web functionalities to happen
through this media plugin, by that I mean, is most web interactive
stuff on a prim in SL expected to be through Flash?
