Hi all, Here's notes from today's meeting in IRC:
1) current projects and 2.59 release - Brecht van Lommel worked on new keymap storage/definition design. Is close to ready, commit follows within 1-2 days from now. This is still main release target. - Splitting user preferences: was 2.5 target too, but still needs a good design plan and enough time for execution, now a post 2.59 target. - Proposal: next sunday meeting final 2.59 decision, release can follow a few days after. (Note: several developers will be at Siggraph then. Thomas Dinges offers to help coordinate release, Andrea Weikert can be backup for Windows build). - Make a test build! After Brecht's keymap work, this tuesday probably. Call follows. - FFmpeg update: we do 2.59 with FFmpeg 0.6.3 still. - Peter Schlaile: tests with FFmpeg 0.8 in proxy branch are going good, but audio seek needs work still. More info on his new sequencer branch is here: http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2011-May/032152.html - OSX team: anyone available to join Jens/Damien as platform maintainers for build issues, library compiles, releases and especially Cocoa updating? 2) Other projects - Campbell Barton: http://clang.blenderheads.org/trunk/ Everyone's invited to check on warnings here, it has smart code analysis. - Thomas Dinges made release cycle proposal: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:DingTo/ReleaseCycle-Proposal He will update the doc based on reviews, with nice gfx! - Sergey Sharybin: FFmpeg 0.8 needs to be added in our svn lib directory for Windows/OSX He can do for Windows, but needs OSX help. Jens Verwiebe available? - Howard Trickey will join the BMesh team (after successful having provided 6 patches already). BMesh project needs more organization efforts... providing overview, summarize work, assign todos to people. Campbell volunteers to coordinate this, with as target to get a merge in trunk. - Xaview Thomas started a project to get OpenColorIO in Blender: https://github.com/thmxv/blender-ocio Give him feedback on the mail he sent today! - SpaceNavigator branch: the basics works fine and can go in 2.59, it wont break things. Nathan Letwory will discuss with Mike Erwin if that's possible within 1-2 days. Further work would be to implement a "Dominant" and Non-dominant" event queue in Blender. Dominant handlers also define input context, non-dominant handlers only follow this. This is also related to work presented at Blender Conference last year for Multi Touch support. 3) Google summer of Code - Joerg Mueller made a video about his sound work progress: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iahnq6m5jaA He'll continue on adding a Speaker Object type in Blender. - In about three weeks GSoC ends. Students should contact mentors to confirm whether they're on track, and reconfirm targets. Final requirements (what to submit to Google) will be confirmed on soc-dev list.
