Lots of interesting news and updates… I’ve combined information from the Third-Party Dev meeting and my regular Tuesday updates. There is normally about two working days between the Third-Party and Server-Scripting meetings. Not much changes in that time. So, I combined them.
Servers
No roll to the main channel. It will continue to run #18.09.04.519319.
The Forum Deploys post says the RC channel roll is to be determined. Rider Linden at the Server-Scripting UG says no RC packages are ready to roll out. We’ll find out Wednesday what actually happens.
He did however, provide a new server package update for EPP on the ADITI side.
He said, “It [EEP server update] will address some validations where FS had much larger ranges of values than the lab did.
I’ve dealt with a cloud speed issue that had annoyed me and I forgot to get in before we sent out the preview.”
Oz Linden at the Friday Third-Party Dev UG announced they will be turning off the UDP Asset Fetch API’s in January. Most viewers no longer use them. But, there may be one or two that do… These API’s do not pass through the CDN servers so are slower and add more load to the region and asset servers.
Old viewers will likely break. Old as in like 4 years old.
