Hi all, Here are the notes from today's developer meeting. Next meeting is Monday, 3 August 18:00 CEST / 16:00 UTC, in #blender-coders on blender.chat.
For the complete report read it on: https://devtalk.blender.org/t/27-july-2020/14476 --- Announcements ============ * Job Openings at Blender [1] * Official Blender Community Logo [2] Blender 2.90 ========== * bcon3 started last Wednesday, July 29th. * Status update of the pending projects: - Multires modifier layout [committed] - VR scene inspection add-on updates [committed] - Modifier option to preserve and interpolate custom normals [committed] - Use consistent layout for custom operator UI [committed] - EEVEE: GLSL refactor/cleanup [postponed] - Add Object Tool [undefined, so far still part of 2.90] * Brecht Van Lommel suggested making the Experimental panel not available for beta/release builds. If anyone has any feedback on this, keep an eye for when the patch shows up. Bugs ==== * Blender has 916 “Needs Developer Attention” issues at the moment. * For next week, since it is the second bug sprint of 2.90, Dalai Felinto will prepare a per module breakdown of this number to help the focus during the sprint. * It helps everyone if the modules can do a pass first, at least helping classifying bugs/known issues and setting priorities. Release Communication Week ======================== * Next week, in parallel with the bug sprint, the communication team + blender animation studio, will help prepare the final release logs, sample files, video, … * Developers are still to do the first pass for the wiki release logs: - Jeroen Bakker will do performance graphs for the animation playback performance gains. - Sebastián Barschkis planned a short demo for the OpenVDB integration. - If Add Object will still make into 2.90 it also needs mention/image/video in the log. Google Summer of Code =================== * The second evaluation is this week - from July 27 20h CEST, to Friday, July 31 same time. * Mentors are encouraged to talk to their students if they need any clarifications before this evaluation * Please don’t wait until the last minute to send the evaluation.
