Blender Goes Open Source

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the put-a-frog-in-a-blender dept.

Christoffer Green writes " This morning, the NaN shareholders have reached an agreement on the conditions for a new future for Blender. In general it means that the Blender Foundation can execute it plans, to continue developement as an open source project." Perhaps some ambitious soul will bolt a reasonable interface onto the 3D app.

    Who are you? The typical slashdot reader that is. Don't you have a job somewhere or are you all still in school?

    The past couple of years almost all IT-related industry have gone through a massive massacre. Lots of people have lost huge investments, not least the public who have invested (often indirectly) in different kinds of tech-companies. Lots of people have lost their jobs and lifesavings.

    Every time a company is cut to pieces and gives up like this (you DO understand thats the reason they are doing this, right?) you all chear like it's the best that has ever happened.

    Whats wrong with you? Is it really THAT fun that a business fail?

    If you indeed are still in school, don't you need a job when you get out? Failing companies are NOT in any way good news!
