Blender Conference

[AMDx64BT]

Have you submitted for Blender Conference? Could be nice.

Actually not a bad idea. I would love to go to it but unless someone
wants to pay for it...

Again another deadline though and quick because we would have 7 days
to get something sent in. The last time this was attempted it did not
go so well. Learning from that experience we should wait til next
year, then Project Widow will be done and we would be able to show the
entire thing, not just some renders and screenshots.

However on the other hand we could send in a single image. We have
enough done already that I can easily render out a still. THAT could
go to the Blender Conference :) Nice thing about it is that Project
WIdow is almost entirely comprised of Renderman shaders now, as
opposed to texture maps. So now we can really show off what
Blender/Mosaic/Aqsis could do.

It could be a "promo still" as they say.

Hi guys,

I'm planning to attend the Blender Conference in Amsterdam this
October should you want to show anything.

Keep-in-mind I'm not been involved with 'Project Widow' so could only
provide basic info for those interested.

Chances are I'll probably show some (simple) Blender > MOSAIC > Aqsis
stuff anyway, to a select group, depending on room availability.

Really. That certainly changes things. That was the main reason for
the Siggraph "fail", Mark really has no idea how the stuff works, let
alone how to talk about it. Leon if you wanna go and talk about the
Blender to Renderman as a whole, then by all means! I would totally do
it myself but money situation prevents that. Sweet!
