Not all of them could be used of course, but it was a fantastic response, the release notes look great, and I hope we have just as much if not more great content for the next release too!

Actually, I haven't been on the Blender sites long enough to know, but is there a place/repository/open gallery where artists can submit their own textures and/or materials? The Blender texture CD is fine, although there are a lot more additions that I could make to it (eg: larger texture sizes, procedural textures, etc.) Sounds good to me.

I'll write a few things down in the file as a readme and e-mail it to you. It would be handy though if there was a "driven" compositing input node so i could control the camera distance via ipo or expression. I have a few (bunch of scattered, unorganized) other examples i will have to consolidate and polish before submitting. People bitch that blender has no included examples / presets if everybody chips in a little that can change. I have a .blend showing how to create depth of field with compositing nodes and Z depth.

The Gfx engine is fast despite not using hardware acceleration (eg: like directmedia for movies) and blender is an excellent examble of that. On this system I get over a 200% increase in speed between windows and linux versions. dang... Well, since I'm new to linux and pretty much up the proverbial creek without a paddle in linux programming, I'll enjoy taking this RC for a run to show what it can do.

Blender is moving forward at supersonic speed. I'll try to get someting setup to day nonetheless (fluids would be nice).

I just wanted to comment now, because after looking at Matt's postings of the Array Modifier and Node Editor demos - I'm just blown away. Ton and co. deserve all of our respect. And Matt, love your work - you're an inspiration. Like you, I've begun to "rediscover" some of the fundamentals - and it's been real fun. Look for me on conceptart in the near future... This is truly a great time to be a blenderhead! Hey all,
