[Bf-committers] Release candidate 3 and commits to port over

[Brecht Van Lommel]

Hi everyone,

Due to a critical bug in 2.80 RC2 that was causing crashes in
sculpting and texture paint, we are going to do another release
candidate. We intend RC3 to be identical to the final release, which
would then be targetted for Tuesday next week.

We intended to do an ahoy for the RC3 later today and put it online tomorrow.


This is the list of fixes we are considering to include from master in RC3.
