Hi all, Here are the notes from today's developer meeting. Next meeting is Monday, 27 January 11:00 CET / 10:00 UTC, in #blender-coders on blender.chat.
For the complete report read it on: https://devtalk.blender.org/t/20-january-2020/11270 Don't forget that starting next week, the "early" meeting begins one hour later. Announcements ============= * Platform maintainers check Brecht's email about VFX reference libraries required updates [0]. * A new proposal for Unified Simulation System Proposal was written by Jacques Lucke [1] * Some devtalk.blender.org proposed changes to help separate development areas and user topics are in place [3]. Julian Eisel raised some issues on keeping topics that are not strictly development related. * New maniphest query to track what needs attention from developers. It is the new default query, and tracks all that is open but "Known Issues" and "Needs Information from User" [4] - this is also the query used to get the number for the tracker curfew progress [5]. Blender 2.82 bcon3 =============== * 2.82 Workboard was updated by Brecht with the missing documentations and critical bugs [6]. Mantaflow bugs were not visited, but Sebastian Barschkis will tag them accordingly. * Reminder to developers to at the very least update the release log after commiting a feature [7]. * Aaron Carlisle (blendify) can help with the Reference Manual [8] update, but it is up to the developers to be sure Aaron has everything he needs to document the feature (help him with images, and pointing him where he can learn how to use the features. If not sure about this contact release manager - Nathan Letwory (jesterKing). * Ray (LazyDodo) asked for review of D6542, which Brecht did during the meeting already. Blender 2.83 bcon1 =============== * Bastien Montagne brings the attention to T73268. The developmenet team should investigate other ways to make complex GTests, than linking whole blend code over and over. * Dalai Felinto brings up that we did a really bad job in 2.82 of spreading new feautures throughout the bcon1 cycle. Let's not let everyone to the last days again. -- [0] https://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2020-January/050424.html [1] https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Nodes/UnifiedSimulationSystemProposal [2] https://www.blender.org/get-involved/dashboard/ [3] https://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-committers/2020-January/050420.html [4] https://developer.blender.org/maniphest/query/iXYB.hJfoB.N/ [5] https://www.blender.org/get-involved/dashboard/ [6] https://developer.blender.org/project/board/89/ [7] https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Reference/Release_Notes/2.82 [8] https://docs.blender.org/manual Regards, Dalai _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
