OpenSimulator 0.7.2 released

Hi folks.  Today sees the release of OpenSimulator 0.7.2.  Despite having a minor point release number, it actually contains a very large number of features and fixes, including experimental support for the mesh upload seen in the latest Linden Lab version 3 viewers, Hypergrid support for friends, lures, landmarks and instant messages, NPC functions, prim and agent limits on regions, fixes for lots of attachments and appearance issues, etc., etc.  Needless to say, it also contains a lot of general bug fixes.

Please see the OpenSimulator 0.7.2 release notes for lots more details.

As always, OpenSimulator is still at alpha level code quality, so please expect breakages, inconsistencies and difficulties – and be pleasantly surprised when they don’t occur :)

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Justin Clark-Casey, an OpenSim core developer and professional software engineer.

On the Linden Lab grid I go by the name of Lulworth Beaumont. On other grids I'm just plain old Justin Clark-Casey.

I'm currently working as a freelance consultant specializing in OpenSimulator and related technologies. If you're interested in learning more then please read the Hire Me page.

I've also written a paper on distributed virtual environments, which examines how virtual worlds could become more like the web, rather than individual silos of users and content.

I often attend the OpenSim Office Hours on a Tuesday on Wright Plaza at OSgrid.org
