Main changes to 4.0 have now been all done or delayed, focus should now be on finalizing targets for 4.1. As a reminder, bug changes/new features can be added to 4.1 until the end of this year (20th December).
- Armature export should get reviewed and go in Blender 4.1 (main) soon.
- The hacks around unique attributes/vgroups names is likely not needed for now, situation will have to be re-evaluated once vgroups become real generic attributes.
- There are a couple of interesting PRs already:
- To author the subdivision schema on export.
- To add a default root prim on export.
- Potential other targets: scene instancing, point cloud reader, …
- Michael will update the relevant task.
- Charles is currently working on minor improvements and bug fixes.
