[Bf-committers] Blender developer meeting minutes, Jan 9 2011

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi all,

1) Blender 2.56 work

- The new bump patch still requires end-user level reviews, preferably  
on production renders. We like to find out if it can efficiently  
replace the patch from august 2009 without breaking visual appearance,  
but just improving it.

There's been a fix in the original patch for compliant scaling of  
procedural bump:

Original proposal: http://kishalmi.servus.at/3D/bumpcode/

- There's a new regression .zip available for download:

2) Other projects

- Jeroen Bakker announces that he'll do a release of Blender-aid this  
week, supporting directory move/rename and scripting. He also is  
nearly done with final proposal for the Compositor OpenCL project.

- Campbell made a basic FBX import script, he's seeking for someone to  
work on this:
https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-extensions/contrib/py/scripts/addons/io_import_fbx.py
(Note, export script is already there!)

- We also have will make a shortlist of missing import/exporters.
