Hi all,
Summary of today's IRC meeting:
1) Blender 2.58
- Everyone gets compliments with the smooth 2.58 release, bi-monthly
cycles ftw! :)
- Peter Schlaile has new Sequencer proxy system ready for commit:
http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2011-May/032152.html
For loading old it files requires to use "Strip -> Rebuild proxy"
menu. Wiki log follows!
- Keymap fix: Brecht, Campbell & Ton had meeting discussing how this
system would become reliable for both usage as save/load and add-on
cases. Ton writes out proposal.
- Campbell added scriptlink-style callbacks: scripts can be assigned
to on-load and on-render now.
He looks into scene-change and other options too.
- Campbell will present a wiki doc with Import/Export status overview
of Blender.
2) Other projects
- Brecht has big Cycles engine commit coming, draw mode changes and
texture worflow.
- Branch developers, update on status for merging plans?
- FYI: BMesh review & progress in wiki:

3) Google Summer of Code
- Salad merging with current trunk gives problems. Who helps?
- Joshua proposes (most of his) work could go to trunk for 2.59.
Agreed to review this during next weeks.
- Midterm evaluation is in 2 weeks! In general the students do great,
some need to get inspired to communicate their progress, plans and
results better though. Being handled on the soc-dev list:

- One student never responded to mails, Christopher Neal from
sas.upenn.edu. Anyone there who can check if all's OK with him?
-Ton-
