[Bf-committers] Blender developers meeting notes - 2018-06-04

[Dalai Felinto]

Hi all,

Here are the notes from today's 09 UTC (10 CET) meeting in irc.freenode.net
#blendercoders. Reminder: meetings are on Mondays, next meeting is 11th
June 17 UTC (18 CET).

1) Blender 2.8

* Antonio Vazquez is preparing a blog post for the upcoming merge.

* He will update the patch today, since all the changes suggested by the
last of review were already addressed in the branch.

* Copy-on-write is no longer optional and we now have a single
copy-on-write-aware editing context. That makes most of the operators to
work out of the box. We still need to go over the task force list and make
sure tagging is happening properly though.

* The temporary task force status page got a visual remodeling:

Date of the data will come next. But now we have analytics support (~50
visitors day).

* The multi-object task force is being on a semi-official halt. Reviewing
patches takes more time than we can afford during the code quest. But they
will be given the proper attention after July 15.

2) Google Summer of Code / Other projects

* No Google Summer of Code student had any topic to bring up.

* Wiki migration: deadline to move existent wiki to read-only mode is June
15. Meeting derailed in a discussion regarding how much data we can keep of
the old one, and if it will be only html, or also page sources. The
migration team will discuss this further and present a solution.
