This is in order to reduce the likelihood of naming clashes, make it easier to filter in/out attributes, ensure uniformity, etc.
All dynattrs in the opensim distro itself or likely future ones should be in the "OpenSim" namespace.
This does alter the underlying dynattrs data structure. All data in previous structures may not be available, though old structures should not cause errors.
This is done without notice since this feature has been explicitly labelled as experimental, subject to change and has not been in a release.
However, existing materials data is being preserved by moving it to the "Materials" store in the "OpenSim" namespace.
On balance, I still think this is useful because asset names and descriptions can sometimes be helpful in determining what things are.
Even though they are never subsequently (inventory names/descriptions are always used instead).
This is mostly Bluewall's work but I am also bumping the general version number
OpenSimulator 0.7.5 remains in the release candidate stage.
I'm doing this because master is significantly adding things that will not be in 0.7.5
This update should not cause issues with existing external binary DLLs because our DLLs do not have strong names
and so the exact version match requirement is not in force.
This is done in the way that one would expect (e.g. moving a folder increments version number on both source and destination parent folders).
This should hopefully improve viewer reuse of its cached inventory information.
Currently MySQL only but will be implement for SQLite/MSSQL if there are no issues.
This may no longer be an issue with better locale enforcement in OpenSimulator but it doesn't hurt to have this patch.

Thanks to controlbreak for this
MySQL and MSSQL have it as Sandbox, sqlite as sandbox.
In various different places in every plugin the wrong casing is used...
Consistency, who needs it? Or one day sqlite can change to Sandbox.
Using the RemoteAdmin API to close then recreate a region would fail if the estate name had not changed. If the estate name /was/ changed then the existing estate would be renamed rather than a new one being created. The problem really arose from a lack of distinction in the data storage layer between creating new estates and loading existing ones.
If these links are not deleted, then they will build up in the player's inventory until they can no longer log in.
Accidental deletion of links due to bugs or other causes is potentially inconvenient but on a par with items being
accidentally moved. When a link is deleted, the target of the link is never touched.
This is a general solution that accounts for the use of links anywhere in the user's inventory.

This applies to adding/removing estate users, groups, managers and bans.
This is the application of the AllEstates_0.5.patch from http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=5420
Thanks very much, Snoopy!
