User:Ama Omega/archive/script jira triage

Details

Every other Monday at Kelly's office hours we will hold a Scripting jira triage. If you have an issue you would like discussed, please add it to the end of the issue triage list below. Please add a single line for each jira with:
your avatar name, jira id, jira subject

Process:

• Delete all issues in "Triaged Last Time"
• Discuss the issues one at a time from top to bottom
• After discussing the issue I will set the 'last triaged' field, change status if appropriate and comment on the issue
• Move the triaged issue down to the "Triaged Last Week" category.

Issues To Triage

Bugs

SVC-3170 Listeners in child prims get positioned at root prim position first, then switch to child prim position after re-rez (resulting in wrong listener / whisper radius)

Note from Cerise, since I always seem to miss these meetings: SVC-3170 was auto-closed at JIRA upgrade but still makes pain for people. The biggest pain from this bug is that the listen point moves after re-rez. I don't know if root or script prim is "better" as long as LSL picks one and stick with it! --Cerise Sorbet 19:28, 25 March 2011 (PDT)
