[Bf-committers] Blender 2.8 planning notes 2017-07-24

Hi, meeting notes for today's Blender 2.8 planning. = Last Week = * Bastien: Some 2.79 release tasks, bug triaging and fixing, worked on whole static override/asset management, and talked to the guys at the studio about 2.8 projects etc! https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Mont29/Foundation/2017#Week_201_-_07.2F15_to_07.2F21 * Campbell: Worked on Py-Manipulator FaceMap implementation, made working example using "Vincent" model (needs to make video demo), otherwise weekly log for details. http://download.blender.org/ftp/ideasman42/donelist/2017.html#week-331-july-17 * Clément: Worked on Screen Space Reflections all the week. More difficult than expected. But results are promising. Expect to merge it tomorrow morning. https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Hypersomniac/Foundation/2017#Week_32:_17th_-_23rd_July * Luca: Finished the patch for passing the eval_ctx argument all around the code. https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Lucarood/Weekly_Reports * Sergey: Continued worked on depsgraph Copy-On-Write, (Agent 327 walk cycle animation playback works in Clay and Eevee). https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/Foundation/2017#Week_294:_17th_-_23rd_July = This Week = * Bastien: Keep working on asset management. * Campbell: Improve face-map usability & general draw-manager optimizations. * Clément: Bugfix, optimization, and Refraction. * Luca: Works on replacing DerivedMesh in cloth. * Sergey: Focusing on making strong/stable SIGGRAPH demo of animation. Meeting agrees we don't like to do planning behind closed-doors and to to move future meetings into #blendercoders So others can more easily be involved in 2.8x development. -- - Campbell
