[Opensim-dev] OpenSimulator will require .Net Framework version 4.6

[Michel Beauregard]

UBit,

do we consider the latest release  0.9.0.1 (released on June 30, 2018) as the  last version still compatible with older XP and mono 3.x ?


Will Hypergrid  compatiblility be maintained for hypergrid jumps  between  grids running  new git master  in test mode and the 0821 former release  and the 0901 latest release or is there a departure of compatibilities to be expected on the hypergrid standpoint  . 

Thanks for the hard work and replies on above.
