Thanks, Merov. Using Dzonatas' SNOW-375 will be a great way to extend the viewer capabilities. Progress on SNOW-495 is good news - thank you! Is that against the 1.4 codebase, or Snow V2? Thanks, - JB On Tue, Apr 6, 2010 at 12:56 AM, Philippe (Merov) Bossut < me...@lindenlab.com> wrote: > Hi,

Dzonatas, I still want to know what your TPV is called, to assist our discussion. You are distributing a TPV made by patching Snowglobe sources with the SNOW-375 patch. The archive you are distributing unpacks as "Snowglobe-i686-1.4.0.0", but I rather doubt that you have permission to be distribu

Please note from the jira: "The purpose of this jira is to help further the process to bring the patch to release quality." At that time, it may be desirable to commit it to Snowglobe. Until then, the patch is offered for community development (not as some conspiracy theory to bypass TPV). If y

While that may be his intention, you can't make a new Snowglobe by placing a patch in Jira, applying the patch to Snowglobe sources, and then distributing the resulting viewer as if it were a new version of Snowglobe, exempt from being a TPV. If that were possible then everyone would do likewise w

Actually his intention could be to contribute the patches *to* snowglobe in which case it's not a new TPV and a very reasonable example of cooperation with a company sponsored open source project. That's actually very likely his intention since the patches *ARE* SNOW-375 and not MY_TPV-375 or some

Nope, client-side scripting and an HTTP/REST server are not in Snowglobe. Your patch SNOW-375 when applied to Snowglobe sources created a derived work from Snowglobe. The derived viewer is clearly a TPV. This is why I am asking you what this new TPV is called, since it is not Snowglobe but only b

Has client-side scripting and an HTTP/REST server been offered in Snowglobe before patch SNOW-375? I'm not sure how you are able to determine such features as "derived" from Snowglobe. The SNOW-375 patch Morgaine wrote: > That sounds pretty interesting, Dzonatas. > > What is your viewer called,

That sounds pretty interesting, Dzonatas. What is your viewer called, this TPV derived from Snowglobe with an extra patch? Morgaine. = On Sat, Apr 3, 2010 at 6:43 PM, Dzonatas Sol wrote: > This is a build of Snowglobe with SNOW-375 patch applied. T
