Hi,

Here are the notes from today’s meeting in irc.freenode.net #blendercoders.

1) Upcoming 2.76 release

  • Projects planning.
  • It’s too late for OpenVDB branch now, it’ll be included into one of the next releases.
  • Previous week was fully spent on bug fixing, over 60 reports were handled! That left us no time for testbuild 1 though.
  • Meeting agrees it’s a bit early for RC1, so we’ll be doing Testbuild1 on Tuesday
  • List of reports to be looked before the release could be found here and here. Please make sure reports in your area are handled!
  • Bastien Montagne volunteers to work on Bug Fixes section of the Release Notes. Help with other sections is very welcome.

2) Other projects

  • Bastien reports nice progress in his ‘live ID replacing‘ and a method restore lost data projects.

  • Julian Eisel is working on the widget system (wiggly-widgets branch). Design doc is coming soon!
