[sldev] Status on Snowglobe release plus call to action

[Ann Otoole]

7 hours straight with no crash even after risking the switch turning on ansiotropic and 16x anti aliasing and switching it back off.

This is the longest I have remained logged on SL in a while. Gonna see how long I can keep it running.

Subject: [sldev] Status on Snowglobe release plus call to action

Hi everyone,

Call to action:
*  Download and run *the latest* version of Snowglobe
*  Provide reliable repros/data on issues referenced below
*  Come to the Open Source Meeting today and help test

Info on all of this is below.

As alluded to in my earlier mail, we're probably going to have to have a
second release candidate for Snowglobe.  We're working on a couple of
minor fixes:

Linux zlib problem:
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-32

Mac installer cosmetic issues;
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-33

We're not planning to fix the curl crash issues, since we don't seem to
have a reliable repro case or any sense of what we'd need to fix.  We're
pretty comfortable that what we have right now is quite usable, and that
with more usage, we'll get the data we need to fix any curl problems. 
That issue is here:
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-2

Thickbrick also saw an issue here with clouds showing as grey:
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SNOW-31

This one could be worrisome if its widespread.  If it only happens for
some people on rare occassions, we'll live with it.

As stated earlier, please download and run *the latest* version of
Snowglobe:
Windows
http://secondlife.com/developers/opensource/downloads/2009/http-texture/2435/Snowglobe_1-0-0-2435_Setup.exe
Mac
http://secondlife.com/developers/opensource/downloads/2009/http-texture/2435/Snowglobe_1_0_0_2435_SNOWGLOBERELEASE.dmg
Linux
http://secondlife.com/developers/opensource/downloads/2009/http-texture/2435/Snowglobe-i686-1.0.0.2435.tar.bz2

As you come to the Open Source Meeting today, please make sure you've
installed the latest version of Snowglobe.  We're going to try really
beating on this thing, making sure that we've got something that we're
all comfortable with.  More on the meeting here:
https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Open_Source_Meeting/Agenda

We're getting close to getting this thing done.  Let's finish it off and
get it out there.

Thanks!
Rob
