Halycon is the virtual world server code base used by the InWorldz grid. The code is a branch of the OpenSimulator code, and has been contributed back to the wider OpenSimulator community (see this InWorldz blog post).
Halcyon is being tested by the MOSES Community as a potential basis for their professional and military simulation and training interests.
