Current projects

64 bits

  • The correct way to cast between 32-bit integers and pointers was discussed. Many places in blender store integers in pointers, but for 64-bits gcc complains about this. (void *)(long) works but looks strange. Some proposed using a macro to do this.
  • Ton stated that 64-bits on Windows as a topic-to-solve, not a release target. He would like a volunteer dev to help work out porting. SGI, SUN and Linux platforms are the targets for this release.

2.44 release targets

  • Since 64-bit conversion was the main target for this release, Ton proposed moving to B-Con 4 as soon as possible and start making test builts. Give 1 to 2 weeks for bug checking, get 64-bits artists to do stress tests, then officially release 2.44. An e-mail will be sent to the list to see if there are other projects targeting this release (pynodes maybe?) before the official B-Con 4.

2.44 schedule

A new splash will be needed for 2.44.

SVN

Marco stated that he will migrate around May 9-11th. First would be getting svn up and running, developers testing it, then move over (which might nicely coincide with 2.44 release). Ton will ask Marco to e-mail the list with details.
