open source virtual world

At the VET eStandards Expert Group meeting yesterday there was an update on the four projects selected for the emerging technology trials. The one that I was really interested in is the trial Canberra Institute of Technology is doing on Virtual Worlds. The platform they have selected is Croquet, an open source development environment really worth looking into if you have any sort of interest in virtual worlds. Have a look at the Croquet website, the people behind it (such as Alan Kay) and you will get a feel for why this platform is worth some serious consideration if you are considering your own virtual worlds project.
