Bart Veldhuizen
I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

GREAT news! We're gonna have not only architecture (kitchen!) but also e.g. much more realistic desktop lamps. I'm thrilled.
It also works in experimental 2.79.
Great!
