[sldev] Linden Lab Navigations and Landmark Project

[Matthew Dowd]

Sorry to be picky but for those of us who can't attend the office hours, is there a description of what the project will do (as opposed to how the project will be managed)?
 
thanks
 
Matthew

Hi, SLDEV - Linden Lab is kicking off a new project, focused on navigation within the viewer, that is different from others we've done.  How is it different? First, Vectorform, a third-party software development company, will complete the design and implementation work for this project, rather than Linden Lab. Vectorform will work closely with Linden Lab, and their team is very familiar with Second Life as residents, Help Island mentors, and developers. This project will be public.  This means that:* Many tasks will be visible in PJIRA.  We aren't yet in a position to publish all planned tasks, but you will see many more than we've traditionally published with new projects. * Vectorform will check their code into a public branch (that you can check it out of).* Weekly project updates will be sent to public email lists like SLDEV, just as they are to internal lists at Linden Lab.* Resident participation is not only welcome but strongly encouraged. * PJIRA tasks and wiki pages will be available in the near future. We will kick this project off publicly, today, at Benjamin Linden’s office hour, 2pm (Pacific) in Beaumont. The next two office hours will be dedicated to soliciting your feedback and input on this project as it gets started. You can meet the Vectorform team at Benjamin Linden's office hour today, and read more about them at:http://www.vectorform.com/secondlife/ If you have any questions about this project, please email the sldev list or Benjamin Linden (benglenn at lindenlab.com) or Stephany Linden (stephany at lindenlab.com) directly. Thanks,Stephany
