Hi all,
I'd like to propose that after the 2.6 series completes that we start
scheduling patch review and perhaps have a development focus.
My thoughts were to have a 1 or 2 month rotating cycle where we focus
on one area of Blender and try and bring that area to be the industry
leader in terms

Hi Tom,
It's a good idea, but I'm afraid it will chase away developers if
we lock things down too much. Most of the people work on what they
want to work on. What your suggesting sounds an awful lot like

Hi,
if one distinctive part needs to be exceedingly improved, it makes
sense to focus on it. However, if so many different things need work
anyway, it's more efficient not to focus too much. Otherwise too many
developers are working on the same thing, which causes overhead,
confusing and makes dec
Python itself needs to go somewhere on that long list, not just something
that will "probably" be used in all those things. Blender still can not be
controlled well from larger pipelines because it can not be automatically
launched and passed a python script that takes over - currently one big

I think this plan could work, but only if the BF invested funds in
paying relevant developers for the duration of each cycle. I think
this is effectively what the open movie projects accomplish, without
the requirement that the new features must be tested in production of
a short film.

Hi Tom,
Bringing some area to be industry leader in 1 or 2 months is
absolutely impossible, no matter how many developers work on it.
Development speed does not even remotely scale linearly by the number
of concurrent developers working on it. Having all the developers
working on one area would be
Hi all thanks for the comments, I appear to have not communicated
clearly, since there is widespread misunderstanding of what I was
proposing.

That's not a bad idea, althoug
Hi,
Luckily the "after the 2.6 series" will take a while ;)
But seriously, any future we can think of will only work if you can
make it work in a natural way. Defining a vision (like the bi-monthly
develop focus) is a nice one, but you won't get much volunteers
inspired for it. And not with
