Hey folks. Been thinking a lot about inventory loss in OpenSim, something that I think we should really do as much as possible to avoid. We've been experiencing numerous cases of lost inventory in K-Grid recently.
What i'd like to implement, is.. When an item is removed from inventory (deleted, or rezzed if it's no-copy), it is not actually deleted by instead an "available" flag is set in the inventory database. All inventory queries will check for the flag and thus it will appear as deleted to the user, but it can be restored easily by an admin if needed. A timestamp should also be set which indicates when the item was made unavailable, so that routine cleanup can be performed on items which were made unavailable a long time ago. I wanted to get people's opinons of this before I implemented it in code. Can anyone think of any drawbacks or possible issues? Any further room for improvement?
