Description Chad Roberts 2012-03-20 13:35:29 UTC
Description of problem:

The slotvis functionality in cumin is not ideal for multiple reasons.  It is flash-based, it does not scale well and it may not be the best and most complete presentation possible.  Given that, it has been proposed that we remove the slotvis functionality.

The slotvis functionality currently appears on the following pages and will be removed from each.

Grid->Slots->Slot visualization
Inventory-><choose node>->Overview


Expected results: The slotvis functionality will no longer appear in cumin.
