Hannu Hollström, Tomi Kujanpää and Antti Ilomäki, the new program manager.
The long time program manager Jani Pirkola resigns. “I could not put enough time for the project anymore, after we got a new baby to the family. Being the program manager for realXtend is really a 24/7 duty, which does not mix well with small children. The family deserves me and the realXtend project deserves a full time leadership.” says Pirkola. “This was the dream come true project for me. I am proud of the realXtend team and all the hard work they have done. I got the dream team for the project.”

The new program manager for realXtend is Antti Ilomäki. Antti is the first employee of the realXtend project, as he started during July 2007. After the initial planning phase, the realXtend development project started September 2007. The program manager Jani Pirkola started at the same time with the development team.
The realXtend project has successfully achieved its goals for 2008. The long term goal of the project is to gain the de facto standard position of the new 3d Internet. realXtend is working with Deepthink to make the realXtend server to run as a dll on top of OpenSim. The first versions are already running, although they are still lacking many of the features. This is seen as a remarkable milestone.
