Suggested Goals
Bug Fixes
- Intra & inter region teleporting
- Complete avatar customization
- Complete connection of script editor to allow editing a prim directly. somewhat done, though peripheral things such as script reset and new script button don't work yet
Physics
- New physics interface design (event driven)
New Backend Protocol (OGS 2)
FIXME: What are the goals for this new protocol?
New Xml Serialization Protocol (xml3)
Restructure and Normalize code
- We should follow 'one dir, one assembly'
- We should follow 'dir == assembly == namespace'
- OpenSim.Framework should not be OpenSim/Framework/General - the whole namespace needs normalization.
- The OpenSimMain and RegionApplicationBase should be renamed (ConfigurableSimulator and SimulatorBase) and moved to a more suitable assembly.
As part of the new protocol, overhaul the "commsmanager"
- A lot of the functions currently in there, needs moving out. Like most of the Caps handling needs to be moved to the backend servers (possible with a dedicated Caps Manager server, like LL seem to have).
- Inventory handling should move to a module. As should Xfer uploads.
Rewrite Asset Cache/Server
Improve the management of client updates
- Combine objects (parts) into single packets, rather than sending a separate packet for each prim as currently happens.
Finish implementing the ll functions for scripting.
Improve UDP network code (ClientStack)
FIXME: how?
Clean up the IClientAPI interface
- sender/eventArgs model instead of signature overload
- normalization of function names
Security
- Add security sinks in the "region to region" .Net remoting process.
- Check for security holes in scripting engine.
Common Abstract Database Layer
- All database engines should share common metadata and production interfaces
- See TribalMedia.Framework.Data for one example
- Evaluate NHibernate or some other mapping technology
Planet Mode
- Wrap grid into one continous simulation of a sphere.
Parcel Media Settings
- Persist media settings
