11.05.18.230225
- This is the "mesh-prep" project. scheduled 2011-05-19
- Included are infrastructure and framework changes to support the release of mesh.
- This release does not include any mesh functionality.
- Havok physics engine updated.
- 10 cm gap between colliding objects has been removed for some objects
- For convex prims (with or without physics) and for concave prims (without physics), the 10cm gap has been removed wherever possible.
- For small prims ( <~0.2m on a side ) it can't be completely removed so those objects may still exhibit a gap, but it will typically be smaller than it was before the change.
- Complete overhaul of physics shape construction and management
- 10 cm gap between colliding objects has been removed for some objects
- llCastRay() function included but disabled.
- Scripts will compile but will not generate results.

- Fixed SVC-6951 "Random sim crashes in latest branches"
- Fixed 2 simulator crashing bugs.
- Made changes to message logging to be less impactful on simulator performance
- Removed the physics changes tied to SVC-5880.
- The fix for this bug was determined to have unintended and adverse reactions.
11.05.03.228703

11.04.22.227477
- This is server trunk + a security fix. deployed 2011-04-27
- We had no new project for this slot so the Monty's "Fast Assets" project will stay here.
11.04.19.226960
- Monty's "Fast Assets" project, scheduled 2011-04-20
- Higher asset request concurrency for downloads issued by the simulator.
- Allows concurrent simulator asset downloads from the asset backend.
- Greatest improvement where regions have long download queue sizes
- Lower request latency for non-texture requests particularly
- Textures (HTTP and UDP) mostly unchanged
- More fair queuing behavior for non-texture assets
- Non-texture requests are serviced in order of receipt rather than last-in-first-out.
- merged with server trunk. - https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/11#11.04.12.226461

11.03.29.225234
- "Estate Transfer Limits" project, scheduled 2011-03-30
- This project implements adjusted behaviour limiting L$, IM, and object transfer for accounts who are limited to estates.
- merged with server trunk. - https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/11#11.03.22.224783
11.03.22.224766
- "Estate Transfer Limits" project, scheduled 2011-03-23
- This is the same project in the same slot that got bumped last Wednesday during the emergency security upgrade.
- This project implements adjusted behaviour limiting L$, IM, and object transfer for accounts who are limited to estates.
- merged with server trunk. - https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/11#11.03.18.224600
11.03.16.224235
- This RC channel contains the security patch and is identical to the main channel.
11.03.15.223994
- "Estate Transfer Limits" project, scheduled 2011-03-16
- This project implements adjusted behaviour limiting L$, IM, and object transfer for accounts who are limited to estates.
- Round 2 - Merged with trunk - https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/11#11.03.14.223737
11.03.08.223072
- "Estate Transfer Limits" project, scheduled 2011-03-09
- This project implements adjusted behaviour limiting L$, IM, and object transfer for accounts who are limited to estates.
11.03.01.222364
- "server-maint" project, deployed 2011-03-02
- Bugs Fixed
- SVC-6781: Duplicating old attachments does not copy attachment point/position/rotation info
- Some people may notice a slight improvement in regions with heavy object creationg/deletion. (Maestro claims he saw his object-creation benchmark speed up from 14 obj/sec to 17 obj/sec. Nothing was changed in object creation, however we did clean up object deletion, and Maestro's benchmark deletes objects as fast as they are created.)
- merged with Kelly's "mono2-aware" branch. - https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/11#11.02.22.221781

11.01.14.219134
- Main channel code, deployed 2011-01-19
- See main channel release notes
11.01.11.218847
- "Centrals Supreme" project deployed 2011-01-12
- Features
- This is a bundle of a 3 updates to our "central servers." The Centrals, as we call them, are all the various machines that do things besides simulating regions. The three updates are:
- Mapserver: a minor update to the machine that generates the region images that you see on the World Map
- Inventory API: you may remember that this service was deployed a few weeks ago. We've since had to disable it due to conflicts with older viewers. This deploy is to add a version number to the API capability that the sims hand out, thereby making it only accessible to newer viewers that can properly interact with it. Older viewers will use the legacy inventory protocol that has been on the grid since the dawn of time.
- Region Conductor: this is the services that decides which simulator to put regions on. When your region is down, either from a restart, crash, or whatever, the region conductor finds an empty sim to start it up on. The chagnes here are to improve the efficiency of how regions are placed on sims.
