Last Call items before Triage

• VWR-225 - SConstruct: create newview lib before final link - Dzonatas Sol
  • 3 votes
  • I've discussed this issue with a Linden, and it most likely will grow stale due to the nature of planned changes to the source. If we don't want to leave open (now) very low priority issues then close. Dzonatas Sol 20:44, 9 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-652 - A harmless compiler warning in indra.l.cpp - Alissa Sabre
  • not sure for windows, one-liner (NB)
• VWR-727 - Torn-off IM windows should be minimizable - Boroondas Gupte
  • one liner, already imported as SL-37565, seems to have been a confusion with other issue. Now patch attached. (NB)
• VWR-349 - Change keyboard shortcuts, because entering { [ ] } on German and some other international keyboards (AltGr 7, 8, 9, 0) triggers Rendering Features accelerators Ctrl-Alt-7, 8, 9, 0 (previously resulting in unstable viewer) - Thomas Shikami
  • obvious, one file, 10 lines, Had spoken about this last time, but not imported (NB)
  • I don't have a German keyboard to test this. Perhaps, we can import and ask to borrow Linden help. Dzonatas Sol 10:07, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
  • I have a German keyboard. There AltGr equals Alt+Ctrl. AltGr+9 (what Europeans type for "]") does toggle for example the Flexi render feature (verified tested here), because it technically is Alt+Ctrl+9. So the patch is simply about moving the debug render features to something that does not gets triggered through Alt+Ctrl+7/8/9/0 (because Europeans indirectly type this when typing "{", "[", "]", "}" ). I.e. if the patch let's you tigger the features with Ctrl+Alt+F9 it does what I intended it to do :-) (NB)
• VWR-1151 - Updated VC8 solution files - Nicholaz Beresford
  • Given that VC8 is still not fully supported, this will still need last minute updates even after import. Dzonatas Sol 12:14, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
  • It doesn't really "need" to be imported ... the ZIP on the JIRA will do nicely as far as the Wiki is concerned, so this is a bit like a Meta-Issue (although the worst thing that can happen is to replace a a completely outdated set of files with one that's a little less outdated :-)) (NB)

Issues that have had a review pass or need further research/inquires

• VWR-1159 - SLurl do not work under Linux (No way to manage "secondfile://" protocoll under linux) - Opensource Obscure
  • (sorry if this add is wrong, i'm new to bug triages, i'm going to attend today) (OO)
  • 4 votes (submitted 2 hours ago. this is an old, old bug)
  • [noted: no patch] Dzonatas Sol 12:05, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-778 - Unnecessary blurry video/textures with low end graphics cards - Nicholaz Beresford
  • Reviewed, patch ok, but not tested. Dzonatas Sol 11:19, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-446 - Automatically start renaming new user-created assets and automatically select new user-created folders - Mr Greggan
  • 7 votes
  • Patch is not ready. We'll need to ask if it is still being worked by Still Defiant, or we could import without patch. Dzonatas Sol 11:45, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-597 - Abuse report tool should autofill abuser name when reporting an object - Tateru Nino
  • 6 votes
  • "I'd like to make sure that the AR tool does not become a way to easily exploit UUIDs; otherwise, nice patch!" Dzonatas Sol 11:59, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-631 - need Second Life Viewer compiled under Solaris x86 and SPARC - Whoops Babii
  • This one is either stale, or there is no movement on support for Solaris. Dzonatas Sol 00:35, 10 June 2007 (PDT)
• SVC-104 - llBase64ToInteger caveats & bugs - Strife Onizuka
  • Should be looked at, since it apparently involves a bug where uninitialized data is referenced
  • This would be helpful if it can be re-implemented as a patch. Dzonatas Sol 12:11, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-190 - Replace HTML Help with Harry Linden's Google Co-op search, or add a button to the HTML Help window to go thee. - SignpostMarv Martin
  • 4 votes
  • This should be a temporary fix if desired, as this may change. Perhaps even if planned changes occur, the button can co-exist, but it is unlikely to be as helpful. Dzonatas Sol 12:24, 11 June 2007 (PDT)

Not Ready for Triage

• VWR-654 - Tools / Reset all Scripts in Selection Window does not Scroll automatically - Zi Ree
  • The first patch, while helpful, is just a simple one, and it needs a follow-up patch to complete it. Dzonatas Sol 09:38, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-733 - Change Request: Excess texture buffer memory size resulting in disk thrashing/crashes/virt memory swapping - Nicholaz Beresford
  • Reviewed, the patch needs clean-up. Dzonatas Sol 11:19, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
• VWR-893 - Patch to make View Admin Options sticky - Gigs Taggart
  • Reviewed, an added llcontroldef does not appear to be the best solution for this feature. Dzonatas Sol 11:54, 11 June 2007 (PDT)
