Hi all,

Here's the notes from today's meeting in #blendercoders, irc.freenode.net.

1) Blender 2.70 projects

- Current schedule (not changed since last week)
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Projects

- Tabs! Jonathan Williamson summarised status of tabs. After lots of discussion throughout the week seems many people can agree on a couple things:

1) tabs should be workflow based when possible.
2) user should switch tabs minimally.
3) panels within tabs should fit nicely on a 1080p monitor.

He also updated tab doc, showing the larger picture for other UI work too:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Proposals/UI/Tab-Interface

One of the most complex ones, Editmode tabs review:
https://developer.blender.org/T37568

Meeting agrees with moving on adding tabs (following current design proposal) in 2.70.

- Tamito Kajiyama had positive feedback from core Freestyle users about the new Python API for Freestyle - which will break older scripts. Goes to 'git master' this week.

- Jonathan Williamson's keymap project (a new choice next to maya/max etc):
Question: is this acceptable to add in BCon3 still? Might be better 2.71? Final answer next week.

2) Other projects

- Sebastian Koenig shows error in mask rasterizing when mask-curves overlap. Anyone around to solve this well?

Hi all,

Here is a summary of today's meeting in irc.freenode.net #blendercoders.

1) Blender 2.70 progress

- Planning is still the same! In two weeks we'll make release candidates.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Projects

- Release log in progress:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.70
GE LOD needs a doc still.

- Priority for everyone who works for Dev Fund or Blender Institute: bug tracker!

- Work on tabs for toolbar is in progress, it's being reviewed using developer.b.o site reports. Check for example:
https://developer.blender.org/D275 (Object mode)

- Proposal to cleanup panels in Image Editor:
https://developer.blender.org/T38371

- Campbell Barton would like some usability testing on a patch: Gesture based multi-button dragging/editing. https://developer.blender.org/D270

- Sergey Sharybin tested an update to latest Carve library. It supports ngons and edge data interpolation (like uv maps, crease) and will solve several bugs.
Almost finished patch: https://developer.blender.org/D274
Might go in 2.70 yes.

- Tamito Kajiyama: Freestyle API revisions are in git master; work on the Freestyle section of the 2.70 release log is in progress. Special thanks to Folkert de Vries finding and solving bugs.

2) Other projects

- Sergey: at some point next week developer.blender.org could be unavailable due to maintaince.

- Ton Roosendaal: we had a meeting here to map out topics related to the Gooseberry pipeline. Full report coming soon. No big conclusions, just a lot of work ahead :)

Laters,

-Ton-

J'aimerais vous poser une question s'il vous plaît.

Es ce que quelqu'un sais si les versions 2.7X proposerons d'utiliser les carte graphique AMD?

Hi all,

Here are the notes from today's meeting in irc.freenode.net #blendercoders.

1) Work on upcoming 2.70 release

- Planning for release didn't change:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Doc/Projects

- Image Editor panels are being reshuffled now:
https://developer.blender.org/T38371

- Crucial bugs to be done are now listed in a special page:
https://developer.blender.org/project/view/35/

- Showstopper bug is for Windows with non-Ascii character file paths (like Japanese).
https://developer.blender.org/T35176
Campbell Barton and Tamito Kajiyama will check on it.

- Note! Python scripters who added toolbar buttons should check and/or update scripts, because of news tabs there. Connect Campbell if you need help.

- Sketchfab will submit an add-on to be included in release, using the 'commercial services' deal we've reviewed and accepted last August. It still needs to be reviewed though.

2) Other projects

- Ton Roosendaal wrote a report of the developer meeting in Blender Institute, to map out issues for the next film project:
http://gooseberry.blender.org/developer-meeting-pipeline-and-tools/

- Lukas Toenne started to work on a cleanup compositor code, will be online this week.

- After the meeting, there was a discussion on the status of NPR render in Blender, and the 'BEER' project from Bong Wee Kwong.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:LightBWK

A new mailing list has been added to discuss work on Blender's NPR render future:

Thanks,
