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

[Campbell Barton]

Adding to Sergey's comments,
>From the meetings I've attended, these aren't big-picture design
discussions which others would feel left out from.
Its quite mundane scheduling of each developers weekly tasks.

Of course its always possible to touch on interesting topics - so
better do in public room.
If it's too noisy & disrupting #blendercoders - we could always move
to a different room, announcing in #blendercoders if people like to
join.
