This Beta includes the activated Direct Delivery functionality. Merchants will now be able to list products using Direct Delivery and try out migrating a listing from Magic Box to Direct Delivery (which will require setting up the product in a Magic Box first). Note that the changes in the last Beta have not been released into production yet.
 
These changes will be in Beta for at least 2-3 weeks before Direct Delivery is release to production (and may be longer than 2-3 weeks, depending upon bug reports/feedback). Note there will not be any production releases between 2/3/2012 and 2/14/2012 (unless there is an urgent bug fix that needs to be made in production.)

*Viewer issues
**Dragging large number of folders to the Outbox can result in apparent inventory loss. Re-start the viewer to resolve.
**The Merchant Outbox is not always visible in the viewer right after it has been created. In some cases, a relog will be required to view the newly created Outbox.
*Limited quantity items (objects the merchant does not have copy rights on) are not yet supported. This feature is currently under development.

Second Life Marketplace BETA Releases and Reporting of Issues

This document is a list of release notes from the most recent Beta Marketplace Releases to [Aditi]. Since the Marketplace is a web product, any deployment will affect all customers immediately. A Beta grid gives you the chance to try out changes before we deploy them.

Please go to [Aditi] to try out any new functionality before it deploys. If you see problems that you believe are related to the current Beta, please let us know about them! Here are the best ways to let us know:

If you would like more details on the Marketplace and how it works, please see the Knowledge Base. If you have questions that other Residents may be able to help you with, please post to the Merchants Forum.
