Patch Linden latest update made within the last 20 minutes or so. Hey Folks! Another quick update - the team involved in fixing up the issues is hard at work on many things, our issue preventing us from doing a large scale release is one of the many things they are working on with all things uplift. Tomorrow is another day and we're ready to release more homes as soon as they can get things fixed up for us to move forward. Again, thank you for your patience and I'll post another update as quickly as I can. -Patch

Patch has just posted this up in the last few minutes via the Linden Homes section. Hi Everyone! An update on where we're at with the Stilt home regions release. We tried with all of our might today to get them in to everyone's hands that wants them. Sadly our plans were thwarted by unforeseen complications. We're hoping to work through some more of this tomorrow, and I'll be back with another update as quickly as possible! Have a great evening and thank you for your patience with us as we work through these issues. -Patch, the Moles and the Second Life Land Operations team

Barnacle Shoals in the east

[09:47] Patch Linden: Just hold your dragons... we've got 3875 more homes to go and 552 houseboats

Stilts now gone live!

[09:40] Patch Linden: Let the Game of Homes begin - this was the test region - we need to watch and see how it goes before doing the rest

9.30am SLT

Wonders if the Stilt release will happen between 9am SLT - 2pm SLT.

It's the most wonderful time of the year 😂

The release is expected later on today.

It's where the Moles are working on the next Linden home theme. Search for "SSP" on the Map and from time to time new changes appear.

Four green dots appear over at the purple ssp regions. A few green dots show up north from the purple ssp regions. The blue circle area is the stilt development area on SSP83X.

Hopefully the lab will release the Stilt homes next week (14th - 20th December 2020). I will be surprised if the release takes place during the christmas week (21st - 27th) or the last week of 2020 (28th Dec - 3rd Jan). The Moles have built a lot of new homes on the log homes continent during the past few months so they will be released soon. It's been great seeing the development and expansion during 2020. Can't wait to see what happens in 2021.

North The railway track going north on the log homes continent has now reached SSPE1201. It's expanding all the way up to SSPE1217 and likely beyond that. Follow the dark green (RR dummy block straight) track and on the map. East The railway track going east on the log homes continent has now reached SSPE1130. It's expanding further up the east coast all the way up to SSPE1113. The Moles are doing a great job adding more railway along the log homes continent through the homes and landscape.

SSPE1119 and SSPE1118 being worked on now. Looks nice so far.

I would imagine sometime next week 14th to 20th December would be a good time for the Stilt release. I don't think it will happen during the Christmas week or the last week of 2020. The Lab could surprise everyone who knows. The next opportunity would be the first or second week in January 2021 after the holidays.

Here are some of my snapshots of the new preview homes. I love the Chalet Windmill as it fits in rather well.

Just spotted the Linden Reveal region showing up as (LOH Linden) I think added on the west side of the SL Christmas Expo region. 1 day left to go! It's official the Linden Reveal will happen on Friday 4th December 2020. It's now on the official Second Life calendar. See my blog post for more details. Times not confirmed yet. Exciting weekend ahead.

Bugs Bunny presses the big red button and grabs the first Stilt Linden Home 😂 Wonders if there will be any carrots inside ? Release of carrots perhaps 😀 How much longer ?

Via Bellisseria Citizens group notice - 30th November 2020 [06:52:43] Patch Linden: Yes, this week will be pretty aggressive with restarts, not related to anything we're doing with Linden Homes, but may also prevent us from doing anything with them also.

With the SL Christmas Expo opening this Friday I would imagine next week (7th+ December) for the big release.

The SL Christmas 2020 regions have already arrived on the grid. 4 days and counting!

Checked back at the SSP Dev regions on the grid that appears to be showing the development of stilt homes and houseboats. Some interesting builds on both these LH Dev regions. It looks like some sort of shopping area on LH Dev 2. The 2020 SL Christmas Expo regions are here but nothing visually at the moment on the map. I wonder if the Linden Reveal region will return again.

100% of main grid regions in Second Life are now in the cloud as of Thursday 19th November 2020. The next stage of the uplift has started.
