[Bf-committers] Blender developer meeting minutes 26 dec 2010

[Jonathan Smith]

We should remember update the release logs page to
/release-logs/blender-256-beta/ instead of /release-logs/blender-255-beta/
like what happened last time. (Probably wasn't going to happen but I figured
it wouldn't hurt to have a reminder)

> 2) Other projects, branches
>
> - Janne Karhu: he approved on Stephen Whitehorn "viscoelastic fluid
