I’m observing how some gsoc developers are presenting their projects on devtalk asking some advice to the users …
And the users immediately took action to give advice and opinions, trying to collaborate on their possibilities.
This is amazing.
With the Blender 2.8 experience and now looking at the new self-organizing steps, it is fascinating to see how powerful this Social-Engineering movement is.
