Emerald Development – Modular Systems

“There are many people working on this viewer, mainly, Linden Lab has created 99.9% of all the code in this viewer. We have also taken code and patches from many other sources, like cool viewer, as well as ideas from Purple Second Life, Vertical Life, and, pretty much anything you can imagine. That is the beauty of open source code, everyone helps out everyone, and just as we have used code from other people, anyone is welcome to use ours according to the license provided.”
