Last year, the Blender Foundation didn't make it into the Google Summer of Code [SoC] because the ideas page wasn't good enough (read more here). Appearantly this year's list was a lot better because they just got accepted!

I was worried after last year. Glad to see they got it back!
"Cycles UDIM support," you say?
Interesting. Hope all goes well.
So when is the UI and workflow going to allow for ease of use for layman's like me and others? I can open Modo and ZBrush and get working almost right away and yet for over ten years still have yet to do anything useful within Blender. I'm no moron but it would be nice to not use hotkeys and or take five steps to do what should take one or two steps for an operation.
