Catznip R7 (2012-10-23)

Known Issues
  • Warning : This viewer does NOT support server side appearance (SSA / SSB). It will be depreciated and updates will be forced as soon as Linden Lab indicate they intend to enable SSA grid wide.
  • Fixed : Initial release hangs on Ubuntu 12.10 with a fontconfig error. Viewer download updated.

These issues may be resolved in our beta viewer...
