Hi all, today I'm happy to be able to say that more administrative tasks have
largely been completed:
First of all, we now have a
Roadmap page that
outlines the Cafu development process and refers to the list of open
tickets that are scheduled for implementation. The Roadmap items itself
are kept as tickets in the issue tracker in the
future
and
asap ("as soon as possible") milestones, and are
thus easily accessed via the tracker reports. For example,
this one lists all tickets,
ordered by milestones.
As always, you're welcome to add your own ideas to the Roadmap, and/or to help
with implementing them!
I think that the list already contains several very interesting items, such as
OpenGL 3.2 and DirectX 11 renderers for Cafu, work on plants and vegetation,
port to Mac OS, and many more. Accordingly, this year we will apply as a
mentoring organization for the
Google Summer of
Code 2010. I don't know if we have any chances of being
accepted, but the GSoC is definitively a great project and worth a try -
after all, we have great technology with Cafu, and I hope that both
students and Google are interested in further improving it. We will post
more information and especially a more detailed list of ideas here soon.
