[Opensim-dev] VERY IMPORTANT: runprebuild and a "clean" build are necessary after r9440

For those following SVN trunk (which I'll remind you is a dangerous and risky practice), revisions r9438 (for sqlite) 
and r9440 (for mysql) migrate the region data to use the dashed uuid format common elsewhere (and already used for some 
attributes in the region data).  This is necessary for future work.

THIS MEANS THAT YOU *MUST* RUN prebuild.bat/prebuild.sh *AND* do a clean build ("nant clean build" if you're building on 
the command line) IN ORDER TO RUN THE MIGRATION.

If you don't do this, then after updating:

* On SQLite and MySQL you will see the completely blank startup islands instead of your usual regions.   DO NOT PANIC 
ALL YOUR DATA IS STILL THERE!  Simply do a runprebuild and a clean build as above.  This will allow the data migration 
to run and make your region accessible again.

* MSSQL is unaffected.

Please spread the word about this as necessary.

Regards,
