==== Paul ProductEngine ====
----
PAST
* BUG STORM- 665 (User is not able to view full name of Group's founder in the Group Profile)
** Fixed and sent for review
* BUG STORM- 879 (Last name resident shown in first entry in conference IM log for users with view display names off when conference initiated by user with last name resident)
** Resolved as cannot reproduce
* BUG STORM- 952 (No upload from filepath including national characters like æ, ø and å)
** See impediments
FUTURE
* Other tickets by priority
IMPEDIMENTS
* STORM- 952
** There are two problems with this issue:
Crash
Not able to upload file which path contains æ, ø and å
I tried to reproduce it and my results (see more details about machines on which i tried to reproduce this in my comment in jira) are:
Windows 7 (32 bit) -- No crash and it is possible to upload the file from filepath including national characters like æ, ø and å. But these characters are replaced with ??
WindowsXP (32 bit) -- No crash and it is NOT possible to upload the file from filepath including national characters like æ, ø and å
In second comment for this ticket Q says that: "Well, we shouldn't crash, but it may be (I haven't researched this yet) that our server-side systems don't support unicode in these names. So it might be that the solution is that we don't let you do that".
So my question is: whether it should be possible to upload such files or not?
==== Seth ProductEngine ====
----
PAST
* BUG (STORM-731) Crash in LLRemoteParcelInfoProcessor::addObserver
** Closed as duplicate.
* BUG (STORM-1015) Unable to select right Login Landmark when it's name is not unique
** Working on the problem with selecting an entry in start location combobox when it contains several identical strings in a list.
FUTURE
* BUG (STORM-1015) Unable to select right Login Landmark when it's name is not unique
** Estimated: 4-6 hours.
IMPEDIMENTS
* BUG (STORM-526) Log out failure during Login causes loss of pending offers, including inventory
** Cannot reproduce without being able to use the specific account of a resident who has this issue on log in.
* BUG (STORM-983) no-transfer textures not searchable via texture picker
** Some residents are concerned about their texture being transfered without permission with a prim it is applied to, others complain about the texture they own being useless without the ability to apply it.
** Waiting for the product owner decision whether to allow No Copy and/or No Transfer textures to be shown in texture picker.
==== Vadim ProductEngine ====
----
PAST
* Story STORM-326 (Create and Save your Windlight Skies/Water as a persistent, new Default setting):
** Finally found out why a saved sky preset wasn't applied at startup (had been investigating this problem for days due to spaghettiness of the code). I can submit my fix, but not sure about it: see IMPEDIMENTS below.
FUTURE
* Prettify my fix of STORM-326 for publishing.
* Help WolfPup with STORM-236 (Allow the "Speak" button to be removed, like other buttons).
IMPEDIMENTS
* STORM-326.
** It turns out that the only way to properly apply a sky preset is to stop the day cycle (so-called animator).
So if you want to have a persistent sky preset, say good-bye to sunsets.
I doubt this is what people expect. A more acceptable solution would be adding a "use estate time for sun/moon positioning" checkbox to each preset. Thus you would be able to choose whether you want fixed sun or not.
How should we handle this issue?
** Note that I'm not completely sure that adding the checkbox is possible (i.e. Windlight supports that), nor that it won't take too much time.
FUTURE
* Continue with STORM-326.
