Multiple folks, myself included, have tested this, and it works
perfectly. Thanks, Diva.

I just added this. Needs a bit more testing than what I can do by
myself, so please, whoever can, test and let me know in the IRC how it
goes.

Here is what I suggest:
Add a teleport version number to QueryAccess. If no version is
included, treat it as 0.7. QueryAccess has the ability to send back
a message that is shown to the user in the teleport dialog. The
QueryAccess call runs in the destination region, so if it sees no
teleport version number and the region is a var, it can return false
and set the message to something like "Your sim version does not
support teleporting into a varregion, please update your software".

Maybe you need to stop writing bad code instead. People would be
happier
about moving up then.

I expected that opensim is doing some version check now. (if
possible) and
sned a message
back that the location the user TP from is running old simulator
version
thats not compatible with ... bla bla...
but at least a message when TP failed that tell users some info
would be a
good idea. People need to stop useing the older versions.

After 0.8 is released, people are going to be setting up

People won't
know, necessarily, that the destination region is a varregion -
only that
their viewer crashed on TP. There will be many complaints about
TPing being
broken by 0.8.
I understand that this cannot be fixed. But I strongly believe it
should
be made to gracefully fail, at least. Only the 0.8 code would have to
change, I think, to accomplish this.
LiruCookies, Nebadon and I were discussing this in IRC. Liru
suggested
(I'm paraphrasing) the addition of some innocuous message,
function or
something, into the teleport process between regions running 0.8
and later
code, that would be missing from the teleport process as initiated
by older
code. The lack of that item would cause the 0.8 region to
gracefully refuse
the TP and send a message back as to why.
This may not be the exact way to handle it, but I think it would
work and
I really do believe that something like this should be added
before 0.8 is
released. Unless you *want* people believing TPs are broken, that
is ...
