That would be a bug in the viewer program. If it gets something unexpected it shouldn't crash but handle it gracefully.

Crash as in refuse to continue, I assume. That's what assertions are for.


I would like to hear of any objections to proceeding with (1) complying with the protocol for root folders and (2) changing the Suitcase folder number to
something other than 8 (Oren, you did that, so please let us know).

Has anyone determined why OpenSim changed the root folder number to 9?


This happened in the move from 0.6.x to 0.7.x. I can't remember why this was done, but I suspect we just used whatever libomv defines as root folder, which is... 9 -- see AssetType.RootFolder. It looks like libomv is "wrong," and the viewer devs have recently submitted a patch to libomv to correct this.
