[Bf-committers] Development fund grant for Lukas Toenne - 'everything nodes'

[Doeke Wartena]

Whoah this makes me so happy!

I come from Softimage and I love ICE. The thing I disliked the most about
blender is that there is no ICE.
Animation Nodes is really great but I miss so many usefull things in there
(and i'm still learning it) (thumbs up Jacques Lucke!).
Last weeks I have been working on reading every page of the Animation Nodes
topic (which is really time consuming).
I also looked at Object Nodes from Lukas but in it's *current* state it
seems (at the surface) to offer less then Animation Nodes.
Of course this says nothing about the foundation that Lukas is making (and
his code is in C).
I want to learn a lot about Animation Nodes first so I can learn more about
how blender is structured as well. After that I hope I could give some
input. I already have sent Lukas some mails last weeks which he said to
have found really informative.

the future of blender is bright!
