Of course we have one. While you're playing detective, maybe you want to look back on Aine's original blog about her move to Littlefield:

It is our pleasure. We loved Aine, and as I've mentioned in the past, she was our friend in RL. We were supposed to meet with her in person at our annual grid admin's meeting in Philadelphia the month after she fell ill and unfortunately she was never able to come. She went downhill very quickly after that. I don't want to get into specifics here, but it was a very sad situation and it makes all of the owners of Littlefield upset discussing the final e-mail from her daughter outlining her decline. Although her daughter really had no idea what her mother was up to regarding the virtual world, Aine's contribution to Opensimulator in my opinion is some of the most important content we have, particularly that danceball. It will always be available - now in it's 2.1 state at her region. And yes, her beacon sometimes shows offline, but it is up 24x7 365, has been for 12 years, and will continue to be up as long as Littlefield is in existence. It's a shame everything in Opensim has to be some kind of controversy. Our apologies if this caused some kind of "mystery" for everyone. We could have resolved that if anyone had bothered to ask us.

Agreed. I've been scratching my head over this one trying to understand just what the controversy is, since this is a full perm item and nearly ubiquitous in Opensim. As a creator, all my items are copy and modify so users can change them any way they like. As long as no one is pretending to be me and trying to sell my stuff I'm good.

It's all part of the Opensimulator "community" (and I use that word lightly) and everything being some kind of scandal or controversy. This is why Littlefield doesn't generally get involved in any of these comments, but I felt that I needed to clear the air on this one since it's being made into some kind of conspiracy, and that not only isn't the intent, but not what Aine would have wanted. Again - the simple answer was to simply ASK us what the situation was.....

This is Aine's Clubmaster. Right before she left for Breast Cancer Treatment she was in the process of updating to the release 2.2 which was a beta release (which is why it is in different primwork) and in the process of testing. It holds the label "Speakeasy" because Speakeasy Dance Club is where she was testing and weekly dance parties occur there. Since she was not only a grid admin but a resident of the grid, she could manipulate it at the dances for fixes, etc... It was never completed and left at the state that it is in that box. Unfortunately, things went downhill for Aine and she was never able to return. 2.2 had some additional NPC's and some bugfixes she was working on (to be honest, I didn't get a chance to ask her what the specific differences were but I recall it having something to do with new OSSL commands). There is no "official" V2.2 this is simply the beta state in base primwork which was being used for testing that she left when she fell ill. There are about 100 variations of her dance ball all over Opensim. The silver ball v2.2 is that "beta" in testing release she left with us. Since this has caused some sort of controversy with everyone 2.2 has been removed and replaced with 2.1 which was the final active release from Aine. v2.2 unless someone already has it will no longer be available to the public. On a side note, Aine not only had her regions on Littlefield, she was also a grid admin. She was a close personal friend to me not only in world but in Real Life. Aine's last remark to me on the danceball was she was doing whatever this 2.2 update was and she wasn't going to update it further for reasons I will not get into here, however, now I'm starting to understand why. Rather than speculate, you could simply have asked the people that actually KNEW Aine and we could have explained this, it's not like any of us are difficult to contact. As all of you are well aware, all of Aine's content is FP and transferable to any grid. That's why there are variations all over the place. This was her request and we have honored that and left her region accessible to everyone as long as Littlefield is active. For those of you who are looking for some nefarious logic between Littlefield and what danceball is located there, you should be ashamed of yourselves. We host these regions for Aine in her memory and there's no benefit at all for us to alter anything there. It is as she left it. I guess this is what happens when you try to do something nice in someone's memory.

So first of all, the "Speakeasy" v2.2 is official in a way, a beta release by Áine herself? I didn't know that.
Besides, I don't have a full list of people who knew her in person. I didn't know that you knew her in person, at least not before I started examining the dance machines, otherwise I would have asked you. So my assumption was that you weren't that close to her, and you falsely took a "Clubmaster v2.2" box which had Áine's name on it for official, also seeing as how many people have slapped "v2.2" on Clubmasters they have upgraded themselves, causing a whole lot of confusion.
At the end of the day, it's your decision which Clubmaster to offer in Áine's name. Knowing all this, I'd suggest offering both and adding an explanation to the box with the Speakeasy dance machine. But again, it's your decision and not mine.

Well considering it was all on Littlefield Grid and has been since Aine moved there, and she is listed as a grid admin, common sense would have been to ask the grid owner for the info. I'm just going to leave v2.1 out so nobody thinks we're trying to perpetuate some hoax that we created the v2.2. The whole "official" thing is really nonsense anyway if you want to get down to it. Frankly, whatever build works for the person using it is the build I would think. That's why Aine made it the way she did allowing Full Perm alteration of all of it.
