[Dalai Felinto]

Hi all,

Here are the notes from today's developer meeting. Next meeting is
Monday, 21 September 11:00 CEST / 9:00 UTC, in #blender-coders on
blender.chat.

For the complete report read it on:

Announcements
=============
* Particles workshop is finished [1].
* Google Summer of Code - all remaining projects passed.

Blender 2.90.1
============
* The list of potential candidates for a 2.90.1 bugfix release [2[.
There appear to be some showstoppers in this list, no objections in
the meeting to go ahead.

Blender 2.91
==========
* bcon2 on Wednesday, September 16 - any major new features and
changes should have landed by then.
* Pablo Dobarro urges for workflow improvement for multi-objects to be
merged in time (T80402) - but they may be fine for bcon2 too if not
too close to bcon3.
* Potrace is still not in, and it is required by some grease pencil patches.
* Evan Wilson made a post about upgrading OIDN to v1.2.3 for 2.91 (it
may fix macOS crashes). Brecht Van Lommel will look at that [3].

Tuesday Team Talks
================
* There was the second round of Tuesday (modules) Talks last week [4].
* Tomorrow we do it again - placeholder notes [5].
* The goal is to do four rounds before we see whether to continue.
* This week Sergey Sharybin will host it this week.
