We are gearing up for a new release in a couple months and we all know what that means. No, not more whining about will Blender have Feature X. I am talking about the ever popular Splash Screen Contest.
This is not the official announcement, just a little advance warning because your Uncle Stiv loves you and wants you all to win. But only if you use the official template. You will use the template, right?
Release notes will be published as always along with the release. In the meantime, you can browse around on Blendernation for some idea of what is going on. Or, if you are hard-core, you can read the cvs logs on the mailing list archives
The official template will be posted with the official splash contest announcement. Soon.
