[2] A few students shared a one-line pitch of their project. More next week. * Ankit Meel (ankitm): I'm writing OBJ, STL & PLY importers and exporters in C++ for faster processing & less memory usage. * Falk David (filedescriptor): I'm working together with Antonio on a grease pencil tool that allows the user to manipulate strokes using curves. * Himanshi Kalra (Calra): I am working on regression tests and this week involves finishing the prototype that automatically generates blend objects for testing. Others ====== * Dalai Felinto proposes to simplify the release cycle [3] by merging bcon4 and bcon5. That leaves LTS to be the new bcon5.
