The current client listed on the download page is 1.13.1.6 yet the last announced version is 1.13.1.5 from 12/15/06. Is this the recommended new client and why no announcement even if it is only an optional client?

That's pretty observant.
 There was a minor bug in the Second Life 1.13.1.5 viewer that caused the Terms of Service display for new residents to be incorrect. We pushed out 1.13.1.6 to fix this - this was the only change between .5 and .6. Rather than force a required multi-megabyte viewer download, or pester existing residents with an optional update that wouldn't actually do anything for them (since they've already agreed to the TOS), we slipstreamed the .6 release as the latest version but did not set the server-side flags which cause it to be offered to existing residents. Sorry for any confusion! |
