Feature Proposals
If you want to propose a feature, you should do so on the opensim-dev mailing list. If there is interest or if you plan to write the code yourself, you can create a page here. Please do not propose features in the Mantis bug tracker. Please do not propose features if you don't have a clear idea of how they would work on a technical level. Please do not propose features expecting other people to do the implementation work without convincing them first - this will not happen.
Feature proposals must be created in conjunction with a post to the opensim-dev mailing list - if they are just created here then it's possible they will not get seen by other developers.
If you're adding a proposal here, please do it with a page name of Feature_Proposals/<name of service>. For example Feature_Proposals/AutoBackup.
