[Bf-committers] IRC meeting minutes, sept 4

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi,

*** Python 2.4 migration
- Jean-Luc takes care of OSX platform side
- Windows & Linux will build fine with 2.4, but platform managers need  
to check on it
- MSVC project files are updated
- DJ Capelis; can you check/update the Linux build system?

*** Game engine
- no actions scheduled... still need docs & state of development report  
:)

*** Scons/Make for windows
- for time being no specific maintainer on make/scons for msvc/cygwin  
compilation needed
- all devs should at least compile engine before comitting though!
- and: if you commit something you think requires make/scons updates,  
seek for help on i, or post a note on this maillist

*** IK lib
- UI needs feedback still. What options are useful, or can be more  
hidden?

*** SoC projects
- Jean-Luc volunteers to help Nils with fluids
- Probably Alexander will do booleans & ffmpg?
- Verse will remain a separate tree for time being
- Nurbana... still WIP?
- but, each SoC coder (get help from mentor, or ask here) can submit  
his project as patch, with notes on dependencies (to new libs), on what  
make/scons/msvc changes are needed, and distribution issues (binary  
size, static or dynamic lib?)

*** Tuhopuu3
- devs who made T3 projects should also submit that as a patch for  
bf-blender. Best is to first find a bf-blender committer to assist on  
it, and get it reviewed first!

*** Release targets
- We still have to go over a lot of smaller patches though (patch  
tracker, everone check on it!), but for the larger projects we can  
already make a very impressive list of targets we want to include in  
the 2.4 release.
Proposal is to freeze this target listing during the next 2 weeks, and  
move to "BCon 3" then. All projects that currently go on seem to be  
feasible to finish the next 3-5 weeks.

Stay tuned!
