[Opensim-dev] Opensim Limits on Avatar texture entries

[Ai Austin]

Thanks to Ubit for the useful notes on OpenSim side limits and 
protocols for recently changing features which OpenSim compatible 
viewers need to take into account especially to be friendly to grids 
that are on older versions of OpenSim and do not include recent 
server side changes.

As Cinder mentioned, if patches can be created for OpenSim viewers 
like Alchemy that are also relevant to Firestorm also it would be 
great if they could be passed over there to their developers. Jessica 
over at Firestorm has said they will look at specifically proposed 
patches for the current server version being worked on...

 >> we cannot adapt to new Opensim features without direct 
communication via viewer patch contributions, ...
 >> we can only adopt or implement new features based on the current 
server version being worked on.

If anyone with the viewer side knowledge can create a Firestorm 
relevant patch that addresses the protocol check and limits avatar 
texture and bakes sent to older OpenSim grids to protect them as well 
that would also be great.
