Coitainly.
As I think about it, there are a few parts. One is OpenSim packet processing to enable the groups messages. Another is a connection to a MySQL (or MSSQL) database to hold the messages.
In thinking about "groups", it seems to me that we can start small. After all, we really only need to make sure the packet processing is worked out and we can store a few messages in a MySQL table.
Personally, I would be delighted to see, say 1) 10 groups, 2) Max number of messages of say 100 per group. 3) Max length of each message, say 256 characters.
That would get us off the ground and flesh out a complement to our current IM implementation in OpenSim, methinks.

I will be happely contribute with my knowledge of the MSSQL code and make it work with a MSSQL database to. Maybe also a idea to look into offline IM's. I already tried something on this topic. It is in mantis under number 3232.

I think I saw commits recently regarding offline messaging that required
a little web code to implement... Melanie I think worked on it? If group
messaging was handled the same way, as long as things are clear on what needs
to be stored and where we’ll happily do the MSSQL side for both.
Personally, group IMs I don’t care about so much as group
building rights – can / could / should the two be handled separately?
Group chat can be handled outside of opensim without much fuss without too much
fuss, but building rights and permissions are integral.

I'd be happy to contribute my MS SQL expertise as well. I've traditionally been MySQL / Oracle, but my new job is purely and MS SQL shop, so that should help as well. I recently wrote on article on the difference between stored procedures in MySQL versus MS SQL. They're actually significantly different, and although it pains me to say it, I think I prefer the MS implementation.

Yes, there are two parts to the 'groups' problem.
One part is the 'groups' permissions issues for land, objects, builds.
Another part is the 'group' messaging issue for communication between various groups, sort of like IM channels, if you will. One the second, I suppose we could go in the IRC or XMPP/Jabber direction, if we thought that might be more fruitful then building our own.
Personally, I am tending to focus on the second, but I admit that both are important.

Hey Charles,
+1 on 2 seperate questions.
Many other system do divide this anyway (security groups vs. distribution
group / maillists).
Maybe it would be a good idea to separate it as well, to be more flexible.
The high end, would be to have a "group in group" way, as in other concepts.
I could think that would even work with the viewer...
However:
I think there are enough ways to communicate. If people are online they
could at least meet.
While offline, each grid registration needs an email - so anyone has email.
But we have a hughe demand on cooperation / security.
I would propose rights-relevant part of group to have a higher priority.
Cheers,
Ralf

I would really encourage a Jabber/XMPP approach for group (and indeed
individual) which open up all sorts of opportunities to link to
external messengers, buddy systems with geo-location (think of the
9opportuinities for in world visualisation of collaborative and
distributed teams), intelligent communications things too. Ai
