[Bf-committers] Blender roadmap article on code blog

[Alexandr Kuznetsov]

Hi Jürgen Herrmann.


Stop stealing my april fools prank.  Afaik, there aren't any significant 
Windows API  additions in vista/7/8 which we might use (Like raw input)
Plus, if a program has pointers right, x32/x64 compatibility isn't that 
hard. Plus, we already have DNA conversion, including endiness.  On the 
countrary, I would encourage to support x32 ( and even PPC architecture) 
to ensure portability.

Best,
Alex
