[Bastien Montagne]

Hi,

[#blender-coders](https://blender.chat/channel/blender-coders) on 
blender.chat.

# Announcements

## Corrective Blender 2.91.1 Release

It is schedule for this Wednesday 13th. Jeroen Bakker will handle the 
release, in coordination with Dalai Felinto.

The [list of commits](https://developer.blender.org/T83216) is growing a 
little bit too much... Probably needs some review pass?

## Blender 2.92

BCon3 for 2.92 release should happen this week on Wednesday 13th. Dalai 
Felinto will go over the 2.92 tasks, but so far there are still a lot of 
open ones for features, missing icons, etc.

All developers are encouraged to go over the workboard and address or 
re-assign tasks to next 2.93 release (as a reminder, after BCon3 we 
should only have bug tasks tagged for 2.92).

Things like missing icons must be tackled, otherwise we'll have to 
revert corresponding features.

Also Asset Browser and Geometry Nodes will need to be evaluated to check 
if they are ready. Dalai Felinto will coordinate final decisions there 
in next two days.
* Julian Eisel would rather hide Assets Browser in the 'experimental 
features' for 2.92 release, it needs a lot more polishing, fixing, and 
even some design decisions may need to be re-evaluated.
* Jacques Lucke notes that the Geometry Nodes sprint planning is 
postponed to Tuesday 12th. Status for 2.92 will be evaluated there.

# Google Summer of Code 2021

Application for organizations [opens on January 
29th](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/), but all 
developpers are already welcomed to update the [ideas 
page](https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/GSoC/Ideas_Suggestions).

Cheers,
