Does this mean things like RLV and client side AO are against the TPV policy? does this mean any feature LL does not included can no longer be included in a TPV compliant viewer? what about parcel windlight in phoenix and firestorm? Did LL just do yet a another ill thought out policy change? or perhaps this is intentional?

Well… in my books it's an attempt to get rid of TPV entirely through the backdoor.

  • V1-UI = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • UI different to the LL viewer in any way = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • different UI skins = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • RLV/RLVa = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • client side AO = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • parcel windlight = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • 3D graphics like in the late Kirstens (the one you'd need that red/green binocle for) = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • access via Smartphone (iPhone, Android) = not a feature in the latest LL release, hence against 2.k
  • etc
