I give you an image of what thousands of people are wearing and dozens more buy daily for less than L$200: http://annotoole.com/images/nuclearshoes.png (not my product btw)
11456kb each shoe? seriously? So 20 avatars in a club with these uses 458MB of region memory? Yes. A public awareness campaign is sorely needed. ________________________________ From: Ann Otoole <missannoto...@yahoo.com> To: opensource-dev@lists.secondlife.com Sent: Tue, September 28, 2010 2:52:53 AM Subject: Re: [opensource-dev] 2.0 Absolute Dealbreaker - script count feature request The issue is all these crappy old obsolete resizers and texture changers. How about a different approach? Step one is complete. Some of us have worked and posted for free various versions of the fast resizers in one script. So there is no excuse for anyone to continue building new content using the obsolete versions. Step 2 would be to do the same for texture changers which is a different animal. Step 3 would be an official public awareness campaign to get creators on board. Step 4 might be some sort of program to get people to trade in their old script abusing shoes and hair on new versions that are not abusive. Step 5 might be to just kill the old abusive scripts when detected. Then LL can begin working on the other popular items notorious for infringing on others rights to a stable sim they are paying tier in. All this time an effort is going into mesh to get people to be aware of vertice counts. How about a similar effort around script resource abuse? Then you don't have to sandbag regions to get to a tool for estate owners to eject what they feel are script abusers. ________________________________ From: Kelly Linden <ke...@lindenlab.com> To: Brandon Husbands <xot...@gmail.com> Cc: opensource-dev@lists.secondlife.com Sent: Tue, September 28, 2010 1:55:57 AM Subject: Re: [opensource-dev] 2.0 Absolute Dealbreaker - script count feature request There are multiple issues at play here: What I understand is that the viewer is flogging our servers to brute force build the data being requested. Yes, you get the results, yes it can take a bit of time for complex avatars or objects - and a lot more work is being done than is necessary both by the viewer and the server. When we look at implementing a feature request it is not in our best interest to just look at the quickest, dirtiest way to get the job done. We want to implement a feature that will work smoothly and be something we can support into the future. Our access to and responsibility for the server side as well as the viewer gives us both a better opportunity as well as increased responsibility. Just to be clear, the work done by other viewer teams is very good work and they have done a great job with the tools they have. I only wish we could have been quicker to expose better tools to them. Secondly, while some of our teams may have a primary focus on either the viewer or the server, other teams - such as the Land team - are built to focus on products as a whole. Estate, region and parcel tools are features we feel deserve to be looked at and evaluated as a product from end to end. These features almost always benefit from both viewer and server development. It is also beneficial to keep the backlogs of related functionality together so we can better prioritize the features and bugs that effect the Land product against each other. So, *yes* it is quite possible to implement this check in the viewer alone, and kudos to the team(s) that have done it. However, we feel obligated to do a more thorough solution by fixing the server and viewer together, and to prioritize this feature request against the many other feature requests for the Land product. - Kelly P.S. I am also not sure on the legal issues involved around the software licenses here. As far as I'm aware we still require a contributors agreement and it is not clear that the code added to the jira was actually written by the person who attached it to jira, whether that person has a contributors agreement or what license was attached to that code. At the very least I am guessing it is extremely bad form to submit code you don't own and didn't create into the jira.
