Hi,

There has been a fair amount of discussion of late regarding the prospect of Linden Lab selling L$ on the currency exchange, and we'd like to clarify a couple of points:

1. Linden Lab is NOT currently selling L$. If in the future we begin selling L$, we will post information to the community clearly describing how many we sold and when.

2. We have begun and will sustain a policy of displaying data about the in-world economy, including how many L$ are added to and removed from the economy (sinks and sources). Early efforts are already available at https://secondlife.com/currency/economy.php.
