Current projects
- Campbell proposes way to have a proper default/install path for extension scripts. This invoked too much confusing discussions; conclusions will follow.
Blender 2.5
- Installer issues have to be solved... Ton, Campbell + Brecht will review a proposal and put online for discussions.
- Andrea volunteers to check on proper install procedure for Windows.
- Proposal got accepted to make a testbuild available this week. It will be named "2.5 alpha 1". The real (stable, documentation ready) release is going to be there soon, but not within a few weeks... the amount of fixes and bugreports (100+ per week) indicate we have to give it time.
Blender alpha 1 topics for release builders
- Collada included? Linux no, Windows yes. Mac?
- Ffmpg include preferably
- Ton arranges a splash and does the ritual release # commit.

- Linux 32/64: Ken Hughes
- OSX 10.4/5 (and 6?) intel: ...

Nice!
EDIT: First! :D
Hmm... So what is happening to Blender 2.50 Beta 0?
I hope they will include an Avisynth enabled Ffmpg for the windows build.
“2.5 alpha 1? this week? Great!
One step closer to stable and complete. Go devs!
Very good news! We can not wait. Blender 2.5 is a very good program, thanks to developers
GNAM GNAM!
I'm wait for the BETA2 :D modeling focus! YES!
It' great to see this progressing. I'll be really excited when it has everything that 2.49 had and is stable. That's when I'll start using it for everything.
Alpha 1. Good idea.
win64:...
Where is jesterKing?
Any news on FBX getting back on its feet soon? I'd love to, quite dangerously, pull my game pipeline over to that.
would love to see a 64 bit installer one day...
Well then Valentine's Day wasn't a total loss!
Release builders:
Win64...
No volunteer at the moment, or won't be ready this week? Not that the suspense has been killing me or anything!
Gonna call this one Alphalpha?
@Oscar Baechler, FBX is in, test a build from graphicall and report any bugs you find.
Wow the progress is really fast paced. Go! Go! Go! I think I see something amazing coming.
Alpha 1? ??????!
