[Bf-committers] Blender 2.80 Release Candidate - master frozen

[Brecht Van Lommel]

Hey all,

We're planning to do the ahoy for the release candidate 2 tomorrow
July 18, around 16:00 CEST.

That's when all the critical fixes should be in, let me know if
there's something that's not going to make it in time.

Thanks,
Brecht.
