#* Should TVPDs be required to declare a license statement for their distributed binaries? Currently LL only requires a privacy policy.
# Coarse Location Improvements (Arrehn Oberlander)
#* https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-7645. This change breaks existing fielded TPVD viewers, including Firestorm and Phoenix, when alternative changesets such as that offered by Ansariel Hiller accomplish the same result without breaking existing viewers. Can we please have a reasonable, two-way discussion on this topic?
# Re https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-7655 - Offer non premium users support for server related issues. (Ed Marryman)

=====Discussion=====
* {{JiraIssue|DRTSIM-537|Restoring offline friendship and group membership offers}}
::Some viewer developers have historically taken the position that any open source is automatically fair game to use at any time. This has sometimes lead to some changes being used either before the originator considered them ready for general use, or to other bad feelings.
** Aditi regions available for testing include"Animesh1", "Animesh Adult", and "PerfTest 2".
::I have asked that Linden Lab changes, even when in public repositories, not be used by TPVs before they are merged to viewer-development, and in the case of new features not before they are in a released viewer (though that difference is normally very small).
::* When is it appropriate to import a feature developed outside your viewer?
::* Should TPVs explicitly get permission?
::* Should there be a protocol for this?
