Blender 2.81

Bugfixing & Documentation

  • Reminder to focus on bugs listed on the Blender 2.81 workboard.
    • If current todo list is empty, or not sure what to work on, please pick something from the workboard list. Confer with Module Owners if you’re unsure about working on a fix for that module.
  • Sebastian Paborg says T66142 might not make it for 2.81 due to hacky nature of proposed fix.
  • Developers are asked to check their new features or changes for Blender 2.81 are properly documented. Apart from the necessary documentation for the Blender 2.81 release list also ensure user-end documentation is written for the manual. Please confer with the documentation team in #docs on blender.chat, or poke Nathan Letwory on either blender.chat PM or vial e-mail ([email protected]).
