[Nathan Letwory]

Meeting 2004/09/26

   1. 2.35 projects shortlist (b-con2)
         1. undo (Ton R)
                * testers: do test this vigorously. Lots and lots and
lots. It has to work flawlessly.
                * Johnny M -> add undo pushes where needed. Volunteers
always needed smile
         2. editmesh refactor (Ton R)
                * proposal: kill loopselect tools -> can be done with one
mouseclick with new editmesh code.
                      o determine right UI option
                      o should be possible at 50% length of current loopcode
                      o perhaps Ton. Coder wanted!
         3. transform() refactor (Martin P)
                * object to transdata is done
                * generic numinput is done
                * grab is mainly done
                * prepared for conversion to event based transform
                * hopefully finished before blender, depending on Martin
Ps workload.
                * if anyone is interested in helping out, contact Martin P
         4. scons refactor (Nathan L, Jean-Luc P, Michel S)
                * rethink location of bs package -> see last weeks meeting
minutes.
         5. softbodies (Ton R + Jensen W + ... )
                * Ton will soon commit frawework, on which Jensen can
continue. (David Bourguignon work? See ML)
         6. hooks (Ton)
                * create softhook, like proportional editing
                * display improvements coming up
                * apply deform (Ton R)
                * check -> lattices, particles, other curves, etc.
         7. curve deform
                * apply deform (Ton R)
                * check -> lattices, particles, other curves, etc.
         8. UI
                * depends on how editmesh rewrite progresses
                * Matt Ebb has re-analysed buttons windows (See UI update)

    *
          o (on modifiers (hooks, softbodies, deform, non-destructive
effects) -> check modifier stack)
