[Opensim-dev] Current Status of OpenSim Git Master

[AJLDuarte]

- The opensim-0.6.9.. was a git side issue, now fixed. (actually already
points to future 0.9..)
- ubOde physics engine is a new alternative engine also based on
OpenDynamicsEngine library like Ode, being a evolution of it.
It is the default Avination engine. Since it had independent development and
was just added, it still needs its own mesh handler ubODEMeshmerizer, for
now incompatible with Meshmerizer. ubODEMeshmerizer and Meshmerizer will
eventually be merged.
 - Bullet, Ode and ubOde support var regions.

Original ODE is maintained only as a compatible engine, for regions that
only have scripts that need it to work.
It will be removed sometime in future.
New contents should use Bullet or ubOde. (i.e. more compatible with SL) and
old should be updated as possible.
ubOde and Bullet should be made be full compatible but some differences are
still expected now.

Compile warnings cleanup is not a priority at the moment (as long they are
just warnings).

Regards,
Ubit

Subject: [Opensim-dev] Current Status of OpenSim Git Master

There seems to be a problem with the OpenSim Git Master we site downloads.
When we click on the main OpenSim GitHub entries at
 
<http://opensimulator.org/viewgit/?a=shortlog&p=opensim>http://opensimulator
.org/viewgit/?a=shortlog&p=opensim
for the tar or zip icon it now gives an odd file name to save. For example
for the latest Git master.... thiese file names...

opensim-0.6.9.rc1-16010-g0fbb4f0.tar
opensim-0.6.9.rc1-16010-g0fbb4f0.zip

Something has got messed up.  Looking back through the recent commits, lots
have the "0.6.9.rc1-ddddd-" bit added in, but not all. 
There are some commits that went into the original master that have the
normal naming.

There also now seem to be 72 warnings, versus the 4 we had remaining before
the merge... I guess a lot relate to the tests which I can see UbitUmarov
working through to try to remove.

Can you also clarify what the purpose of "ubOde phyiscs engine and
ubODEMeshmerizer are? Are these transitional modules to replace the ODE and
Meshmerizer ones and support var regions with ODE physics engine when fully
tested?  Or are they meant as long term alternatives to the default
BulletSim physics engine?
