I remember this coming up in the list a while back, and a Linden
mentioned when reflections eventually had gotten removed to make way
for windlight. SVN is open to the public, which means we can hop back
to the version it existed in, can't we?

Lemme try to track the version down.

Brad Linden said back in May 2009
https://lists.secondlife.com/pipermail/sldev/2009-May/013654.html that
it was cut out to make way for Windlight. Specifically, windlight
water.

Windlight First Look was released in May of 2007.
https://blogs.secondlife.com/community/features/blog/2007/05/29/windlight-first-look-viewer-released

The release notes on the wiki say 1.19.1 is the first version with
windlight. http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Release/1.19.1
Though 1.19.0 mentions a fix for Windlight pie menus. So 1.18 may be
your best bet for finding the code.

I'm searching the blog for an open source announcement, but sorting by
date gives me completely random results. The year isn't even stable.
Jira'd. http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-1395

Someone who's better at using SVN than me will have to look at the
oldest thing we have and see if 1.18 is available. I don't remember
when the viewer went open source. If it's available, it may have the
reflection code, stagnant or not. If it's not there, and older
versions aren't available, then it would need to be requested.
