Week 10
Hi everyone! This is my report for the present week.
Objectives
This week, I finished the objectives for Weeks 10 and 11:
- User documentation revision.
- Developer documentation revision.
On Wednesday, Brecht merged our deliverables into Blender! Yay!
What's been done
Leftovers from the past week:
- Uploaded the remaining charts (e822298052db8d33fade8e9b12cca7d5890ebc7a
<https://github.com/amyspark/blender-manual/commit/e822298052db8d33fade8e9b12cca7d5890ebc7a>
).
- Improved node screenshot padding (

<https://github.com/amyspark/blender-manual/commit/93ac08022f9adf132916d480e0a8ce74fa5d90ab>
).
- Relocated the charts to beneath their parameters (

<https://github.com/amyspark/blender-manual/commit/1892430016fe097d528544cecd683957ed9da642>
).
On the Blender repo:
- I performed the final cleanup (

<http://developer.blender.org/rB28dfe13cd85bd714fc1cf22dfe5792b8e156816e>
).
- Brecht merged the shader into master (
rB5078b9d2d08a34ae3786100c2301ea960165e7f2
<http://developer.blender.org/rB5078b9d2d08a34ae3786100c2301ea960165e7f2>,
rBM4368 <http://developer.blender.org/rBM4368>).
Next up
- The regression test suite has not been uploaded yet to SVN.
Questions
About the shader itself:
- It's been asked in the BA thread if I have extra objectives for the
shaders. Do you feel that more features/controls should be added?
- I came up with controls for each of the modes (R, TT, TRT, TRRT+).
- It's been also suggested to prune the UI into a "Basic" and
"Advanced" mode.
About the GSoC project deliverables:
- If I read the mail correctly, Google wants us students to summarize
and show off our work in a single place e.g. a blog post. How does Blender
handle this?
- My preference would be to add a page (similar to when one publishes
a paper) in amyspark.me explaining the work we did. We could embed
the resulting pictures, credits, etc. and the demonstration video from
Youtube.
- As for "Get the code", perhaps I could add links to the relevant
commits?
