Scheduled Tuesday, February 14, between 06:30 - 11:30 PST.

 

Second Life RC

The RC channels will be rolled during their usual time slot on Wednesday.  The majority of the RC regions will be restarted without a version change, while a minority ("BlueSteel" group) will get a new build.  The new build is the same as 2023-01-27.577942 which entered 2 weeks ago, except that it also includes a fix for BUG-233288.  Aside from bug fixes, this build also includes several exciting new LSL features:

• New function llReplaceSubString(): find and replace instances of one substring with another string
• New function llHMAC(): generate the HMAC hash of a message
• New function llSignRSA(): generate an RSA signature of a message, given a private key
• New function llVerifyRSA(): validate whether an RSA signature for a message is valid, given the public key
• New parameters for llGetEnv(): "grid" and "region_rating"
• Dozens of new parameters for llGetSimStats()

Scheduled Wednesday, February 15, between 07:00 - 09:30 PST.

Update: As Lucia notes, there was an unplanned rollback of RC regions on 2023-02-02.578100 this morning (Feb. 16), placing them on the same 2023-01-20.577734 build as the rest of the grid.  The reason for the rollback was BUG-233402, which prevented legacy LSO-compiled scripts from triggering an on_rez() event when rezzed.

FYI. The reason BlueSteel regions are currently being rolled back is because on_rez() apparently is not triggering in LSO compiled scripts. https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-233402
