[sldev] ATTN-LL: Adding / Extending SL wiki to discuss Havok-4 ?

[Dale Mahalko]

Well, I'd like to help expand on the information in the SL wiki and
help document the features and limitations of the new engine, but I'm
not sure what the protocol should be for this. Should a subpage be
started linked from the main page, or is it okay to extend off the
main page for now, until enough content accumulates to justify a
subpage?

I've experimentally added a new section to the bottom of the Havok 4
Beta Home page, though this is possibly not a good spot to add
anything since it may seem like what I've added speaks for LL as part
of the announcement of the beta grid. But, the page isn't locked
against editing by us non-LL editors.... I don't know what to do.


I'm going to leave it there for review, and if you (at LL) don't like
it, then move it, edit it, or whatever is you think is appropriate:

== New experiences that are normal ==
=== Simulator lag from huge piles of stacked objects ===
=== Thousands of objects that don't touch do not lag ===

I've also created two documentary Google Videos to go along with the
new sections, in order to make what's going on more visually
understandable. (The second video is a bit long, and I'll probably
redo it with an automated cube-dropper.)
