Hi all, Here are the notes from today's developer meeting. Next meeting is Monday, 9 March 11:00 CET / 10:00 UTC, in #blender-coders on blender.chat.
For the complete report read it on: https://devtalk.blender.org/t/2-march-2020/11911 Announcements ============= * Blender 3.0 and LTS proposal by Ton Roosendaal [1]. * Second "code quality day" this Friday, 6/Mar/20 [2]. 2.82a ===== * Campbell Barton organized an initial list of fixes to be backported to a 2.82a release (T74274). * Developers are to update the task with proposed new fixes. * Buildbot builds will be triggered manually, the 2.82a branch will be created this week. * The idea is to release 2.82a on March 12, same day we start 2.83 bcon2. 2.83 ==== * Grease pencil patch review is ongoing (D6293) with few fixes pending. * VR initial patches were sent for review, the final milestone 1 functionality will come afterwards (T71347). * Volume object is also under review (D6945). * Multires (T73317) should make it in time. Which doesn't mean solve every possible issue, but making it a lot better. * Undo (T60695) is a complicated topic. It doesn't look far from ready, but Bastien Montagne is afraid of introducing big issues with this change without the due time for testing. Other ===== * The meeting digressed a bit on the impacts that making 2.83 the first LTS would have. In particular when it comes to add more or less features in a release that is supposed to aim at stability. * "The LTS stability comes from continuing to bugfix it after the release, not so much form being conservative with new features" (Brecht Van Lommel) [1] - https://code.blender.org/2020/02/release-planning-2020-2025/ [2] - https://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2020-March/050486.html -Dalai- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Dalai Felinto - da...@blender.org - www.blender.org Blender Development Coordinator _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org https://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
