Topics are focused on avatars, content creation efficiency, content creation tools and methods, rendering issues, and many related random topics.

Please add topics for discussion / agenda items to the end of the list below prior to 11:50 AM. Priority will be given to topics that are posted in advance and are relevant to the goals of the office hour. Feel free to include relevant links to JIRA or wiki pages. Contact Nyx Linden if you are unsure if your topic is relevant or appropriate.

September 2, 2009

VWR-6713: Allow Alpha Channel of Textures to be used as a 1-bit Mask (Alpha Masking)

Animation bug that distorts attachments (reportedly a bug in the lead out)

any news on mechanisms for security that can prevent rouge 3rd party clients from cleaning out our linden balance, or buying more linden via credit card

Megaprim support

When avatar masking will be released?

Mesh Import - when we get it? Can you mesh avatars?

Avatar 2.0? - Updated avatar mesh, if not replacement or additional meshes, then maybe 'small' fixes that should improve the look a bit? Fixes for pointy collarbones, indent right above the knee, small peak on nose and chin (you see it from the side), wrists

Content creation: better tools for editing prims: mirror, rotate, ...

Prim edit dialog: texture picker extremely slow, move the 'default texture' to the texture tab?

Deadline for more clothing layers?

Animated textures on body?

VWR-15114 - fix local lights throttle for graphics cards that don't need it.

How far is LL with opening of SL, the offline sims for residents and teleporting to opensim?

Raise number of local lights?

• Nyx suggested on Tues 1 Sept that a Jira for LL viewer crashes occurring in OSgrid would be useful. Questions: (i) Would such Jiras actually be examined, or rejected at Bug Triage as being non-SL? (ii) Will you try to repro in OSgrid? --- if not, there's not much point. (iii) Would any relevant fixes get merged into mainline, or rejected if they cannot affect users in SL?
