Blender Foundation to Create Open Movie, Open Game

Eloquence writes "The Blender Foundation, which maintains the open source 3D tool Blender, has announced two new projects, codenamed Peach and Apricot. Project Peach will be a new open source movie, following in the footsteps of last year's Elephants Dream project (which was initially codenamed Orange). Apricot, on the other hand, will use Blender in conjunction with open source 3D framework Crystal Space to create an open game, thereby showcasing both technologies."

  1. Direct Ripoff of Digg's Post by Khyber · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    This was copied straight from the Digg source and they left out a detail - "In addition, a for profit corporation 'Blender Institutue' will be set up to provide commercial support and development of Blender." At least the submitter could've included that in the summary as well, FFS, while you're ripping off a Digg story. Even reddit hasn't picked up on it yet. Or at least /. Editors could read other sources and check them like REAL news sites would, to help avoid direct ripping off of someone else's material.

    Still waiting on Serviscope_minor to wake up to fucking reality and realize that Jessica Price isn't going to fuck him.
