[Bf-committers] Blender developers meeting minutes - February 22, 2015

[David Fenner]

Hi. About GSOC, we users have made a thread with ideas and suggestions, not
as feature requests or random demands, but just to serve as a starting
point or somewhere that devs and students can look for ideas . In general
things were kept quite realistic and not too ambitious, there are some
interesting points there. Please take a look:

Thanks,
David.

> Here are the notes from today's meeting in irc.freenode.net
> #blendercoders.
>
> 1) Upcoming 2.74 release
>
> - The current project list:
>   http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Projects
>
> - We're still on planning and in BCon3 (wrapping up and fix only). A test
> build can be made next week.
>
> - The "Sticky keys" patch has been moved to 2.75. Julian Eisel (code) and
> Campbell Barton (review) agreed that changes in Blender's event system are
> a bit too risky now, better apply right after release.
>
> - Apparently a lot of coders like cats! So, time to challenge the artists
> out there to come up with Cat Splash for 2.74. Frequent code-contributors
> who have cats can help judging! (Contact me).
>
> 2) Other projects
>
> - Blender Foundation has sent in the application! March 2 Google announces
> which orgs participate this year.

>
> - All module owners are invited to add their ideas for GSoC students on
> this list:
>   http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/GoogleSummerOfCode/2015/Ideas
>
> - Bastien Montagne has been having fun optimizing our GHash hashing code:
