Note the date when that one was added, Oct. 15, 20*09*. Also note the artwork and color scheme. I guess that was from an early development version of Viewer 2 that already had the people sidebar tab but also still had the old code of the contacts panel, so that both could be compared within a single application. (That, or it's a mock-up.)
If you read the comments you'll note this isn't what Aimee has implemented now: She shows permissions in the hover tips, it seems. I'd still prefer to see all perms at one glance without hovering. Moon Metty's suggestion to only display non-default values would indeed avoid the cluttering and, more important, would also make these values stand out. I think this could nicely be done with icons similar the maturity rating and parcel permission ones in the navigation bar. Cheers, Boroondas PS: why are you CCing to snowst...@lists.lindenlab.com? That list doesn't seem to exist.
