As a resident, I would like to be able to search contacts based on contents
of contact notes, picks or content of 1st/2nd life tab text. In a related
(maybe another story but connected) way, I would like to be able to record
notes about inventory items, and search them in the same way.

As a user, I want to be able to choose some number of places that load more
quickly, and am willing to trade some disk space to make this happen. This
list of places may, or may not, be based on visit frequency, favorites or
personal selection. (I may want a part

Another thought to toss in is that Second Life is fairly CPU dependent for
performance too. Just last night, I upgraded a machine here from an AMD
Athlon 8650 2.6 GHz triple core processor to an AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4 GHz
quad core. This system has an NVidia 9800GT-based card in it, and that

Sometimes it's useful to take a large parallel jump as a way of exploring an

This could be a not so bright question, but shouldn't all those patches to
fix up OpenSim bugs be ending up back in the trunk and end up with the
default downloads working better?

This is a pretty generic question, but I hope it will be helpful.
Under what conditions might it be possible to do a fairly quick to
release version and then iterate the feature behavior towards
something more sophisticated, without breaking things?
