[Bf-interface] Blender 2.8 technical design doc

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi Christian,

You're welcome! As I wrote just now to the bf-committers list, we'll refresh and confirm that modules structure.
The UI module team is listed here:
https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Process/Module_Owners/List <https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Process/Module_Owners/List>

Design for Blender 2.8 can be done on many levels, from icons, button panel layouts, keymap configs, general theme and looks, to making mockups for (new) UIs the developers are working on now (toolbar, widgets, collections).

Especially the latter is very important. The earlier you can work with a coder on this the better. A code commit then also results in usable and well defined (and looking!) UIs.

Then there are plenty if issues in Blender that can be improved or made better accessible. Drivers are a good example.

I think everyone's curious to learn a bit more about your work or your UI designs (or ideas for Blender).
Do you have something you can show? 

Thanks, 

-Ton-
