[Bf-committers] Blender 2.8 planning notes 2017-07-24

[Sergey Sharybin]

Hi,

Just to state the obvious. the "closed" nature of those meetings did not
happen due to attempts to isolate anyone. At the early days we were having
long (2+ hours) meetings, discussion and trying to lay down strong core
concepts. That wouldn't be efficient at all to occupy public channel for
such amount of time and ask everyone else to stay silent. Besides, they
were never secret, everyone knew about them.

Nowadays we've got all core designs in place, we know exactly where each
team is going to, so meetings are much shorter now. So we can totally
occupy #blendercoders with those meetings without worrying that we are
silencing everyone else for too long.
