The Development Update was on break over the Christmas/New Year holidays....but it's back in action!

This is a summary of issues that we are working on now:

1. There is a long-standing issue with Linden-owned Welcome Area and Sandbox regions showing up in the traffic (dwell) counts, even though they should not. We are working on a resolution for this problem now.

2. The llGetMass() script call broke in Second Life 1.8.0. It currently gets the mass of the attachment instead of the mass of the avatar. It will be fixed in the next version.

3. Search results from the Finder "Find > All" search page does not include Classified ads. Second Life 1.8.1 will resolve this problem.

4. We are hot on the trail of a simulator crash that has been causing some issues for several weeks now. The crash is physics related, and was introduced with a change in 1.7.0. I will update everyone when there is more information on the problem -- hopefully next week!

These issues are known, but I do not yet have an estimate for a fix:

1. llDetectedGrab(), a LSL call, no longer works on non-physical objects. This was discovered in the most recent version of Second Life, but may have been a problem in previous versions.

2. Any texture already being used as a land texture appears greyed out in the Estate Tool's texture picker.
