Second Life will be going down for about two hours on the morning of Tuesday, August 3rd.

This will be an update to the servers only and will not require a new client to be downloaded.

Release notes for 1.4.8

Second Life 1.4.8 Aug 3, 2004
===============================
- Fixed a bug that was causing linked prims to visibly drift after
several unlink/link cycles.

- The depth at which underground objects are automatically returned
to your lost&found has been increased to make it harder to accidentally
lose an object while moving it around.

(For those who want more details: the depth of return is 4 meters
or the diagonal of the bounding box, whichever is larger. The depth is
measured directly above the object's center-of-mass (which is not
necessarily the root primitive's "center", and must be eyeballed, since
the server does not yet send the center-of-mass to the client). Note,
the auto-return happens on deselect, so it is still possible to place
an object in a hole and bury it deeper, however if buried deep enough it
may vanish on sim restart.)
