Hi all,

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

1) Blender 2.65 release status

- UI translations: Bastien Montagne tested boost::locale, it works much better 
than our current gettext library. Meeting agrees on removing gettext/iconv and 
have the i8n module use boost for it.
Bastien will handle this further with the platform maintainers.

- Thomas Dinges mentions OpenImageIO released stable 1.1. Brecht van Lommel 
will check on it.

- Short discussion happened on how OpenImage and Blender's ImBuf/Image system 
could relate - but this is a topic for after the release.

- OpenCL support for Cycles will be still on hold, and not part of release.
  You can compile it by setting CYCLES_TEST.

- Two release targets were moved to 2.66 (Python nodes, Bullet integration)
  http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Projects#2.6x_release_cycle

- Development will now enter "BCon3" status - just feature fixes, bug fixes and 
get ready for release. Planning for release of 2.65 early December is on track.

- Massive bug tracker cleanup and fixing has paid of! We're already in the low 
70ies! (Was 211 3 weeks ago).

2) Other projects

- Sergey Sharybin worked several days on solving image thread conflicts 
(preview renders, UI, render). He couldn't solve it reliably yet. Will be 
checked on this week if there's a chance to add it, otherwise it's for later.

Thanks!

-Ton-
