Hi all,
Here are the notes from today's meeting in irc.freenode.net #blendercoders.
1) Release review
- Last week the first 2.74 RC was released. Proposal is to do an RC2 mid this week.
- Bug tracker had a big cleanup! Less than 120 open issues now.
- Important issues that were solved already in the first RC:
- speed regression in rendering caused by workaround to avoid self-shadowing of huge triangles
- crash in compositor
- FBX regression
2) Targets for the upcoming release.
- Projects and schedule proposal
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Projects
- Sergey Sharybin: the depsgraph might get merged in, but probably only optionally - for tests.
- OpenSubdiv is possible too, according to Sergey.
- Dalai Felinto is in Amsterdam and he's ready for moving things to master. It needs just one more session with Campbell Barton and Sergey.
3) Other projects
- Mike Erwin starts this week on a 3 month Development Fund grant - to work on our new Viewport.
- Julian 'Severin' Eisel will work in Blender Institute for two weeks early April, probably on the custom widget system (and to get some hands-on animation training!).
Thanks,
-Ton-
