Note: Meetings take place every 2 weeks

For Meeting on Thursday, 8/4/2011 at 1pm - 2pm PT/SLT.

• Linden Updates:
  • Update on Forums/Blogs (Lexie)
  • Update on SL Answers (Lexie)
  • Update on Knowledge Base (Rand/Jeremy)

• Resi Adds:

• • FOR FOLLOW-UP - Show names of the new Smileys when you put cursor over them in the selection box, in the same way that the old ones do. (Peewee) No update yet - lexie

• • Idea to add a disclaimer to start a thread in the feedback forum, so it can be added back to the main forum list where it will be more visible. Ref: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Forums-Feedback/Why-is-the-Feedback-Forum-hidden/m-p/929125#M1797 (Dresden) -

• • Idea to enable giving of kudos in other areas of the forum, possibly all. Ref: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Forums-Feedback/Kudos-in-other-areas/m-p/993997 (Dresden)

• • Please enable a public Translation/Localization sub-forum in the technology or international section for fast and easy feedback on translations (as can be seen in this example: http://eu.battle.net/wow/de/forum/878885/ - Skip the first screen by clicking *Weiter* on top of the screen). Use scenarios:
    • Residents can give easy feedback when they see a wrong translation or have a suggestion for improvements
    • Translators can discuss terms with other residents before implementing them
    • Geeks (I mean technical savvy residents/lindens) can explain terms that translators and/or other residents don´t understand

• • Update on current situation ref Infohubs, are they being redeveloped/updated etc to reflect the increased volume of new users. Update specifically on Boardroom after visit by some of the Linden Staff present at this meeting** (Adamburp Adamczyk)

• • Update on Lexie's Birthday Party, hope she had a good time :))
