Hello everybody. This is a short summary of OpenSim development for the past week up until the end of last Saturday. The letters in brackets after bug and feature points are the Git revision identifiers in which the work appears. We only give the first 6 characters of each revision but this should be enough to identify it.
The changes described here appear only in OpenSim’s cutting edge Git ‘master’ branch. Please do not attempt to use code taken directly from ‘master’ in any production environment. At particular points in time this in-development code may not work or may even cause data corruption. If you are not a developer or tester, please treat this summary instead as a preview of what will be coming up in the next release. The latest official release is OpenSim 0.6.7 (released on 14th October 2009).
This week in OpenSim ( 4c61fc – 0639e9 ).
General news
- Testing continues on the ‘release candidate 1‘ stage for OpenSim 0.6.8. This was branched from master on 23rd November 2009 though it will incorporate selected bug fixes from the master line. If you’re familiar with OpenSim, are comfortable with building it from source code and would like to contribute to the release process then please follow the instructions on the mailing list and get testing!
Features & bug fixes
- Diva fixed an issue where older user records with hypergrid asset and inventory URI fields would cause errors if used on a hypergrid region (decd51).
- Teravus fixed a bug where animations were not playing for bots using the autopilot feature of libomv (0639e9).
Infrastructure
- Kunnis contributed patches that clean up now unused OpenSim classes and remove some dead fields in other classes.
