<p>I'm not a developer or anything, so take what I say with a grain
of salt, but I think all your questions can be answered with a
simple: <b>it is not done yet.</b><br>
2.8 branch is under heavy development, nothing is ready, there are
a lot more important things that don't yet even work, well get
there eventually.<br>

<div>I have been in contact with Mike Erwin about where to
post this and he suggested sending it here.</div>

<div>Just to introduce myself, I am Carlo from Adelaide
Australia, and we are part of a Architecture /
Infrastructure visualisation company. We have been using
blender for the past 8 years as our main CG application
and have supported the foundation in various ways over
the years. We have around 10 artists who work for us who
also all use blender.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We keep up to date with the Blender developments and
Eevee looks great. However, we are seeking some
clarifications about the direction of the program, as
most of the discussions have happened behind closed
doors.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Wireframe has always been a controversial topic
around blender2.8. There was development at the last
blender conference shown ( <a
href="https://youtu.be/MD7MU-UVG2U?t=625"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://youtu.be/MD7MU-UVG2U?t=625</a>
), however looking through the latest builds no
wireframe modes are to be seen. Is this mode still yet
to be combined, or is wireframe mode to be removed?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cycles and its use is important to us, and testing
out the builds over the past few months has been
interesting, as cycles is constantly rendering in the
background. I have seen the blog post about wires being
drawn over the top of the cycles render, however, on
production scenes this is not practical and having an
option to turn it off will be important. Which leads
onto.....</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>What is the direction for Cycles viewport? Is the aim
to replace it with Eevee, and have Eevee as the standard
viewport across all renderers? or will Cycles viewport
be independent to this? How will performance be of
Eevee with its prettyness be for production scenes</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I appreciate all the work that has been done so far,
all I am trying to do is get the discussion going for
these features. </div>

<div>Kind Regards</div>
