2023-10-01
Organization Discussion
- Feature freeze? (Zughy)
- Suggestion (see milestone): keep MTG to have enough time to debundle in 5.9.0 (Krock)
- Voted for +2 weeks time to get this done.
- Caveat: rubenwardy and grorp will not be available much in the next few weeks
- Feature freeze on Oct 15, release on Oct 29
- LTO optimization is not a blocker. Can be moved to 5.9.0 if needed.
- Suggestion (see milestone): keep MTG to have enough time to debundle in 5.9.0 (Krock)
- Settings UI tracker - Plenty of merged PRs, how much is still required for 5.8.0? (Krock)
- Non-blocking issues for an eventual release.
PR discussion/reviews
- Dual wield - Feedback brainstorming (Krock)
- Responded.
Concept approval for:
- Liquid system - Concept yes/no? (Krock)
- Concept approved. Waiting for performance test results.
2023-09-17
Organization Discussion
- Feature freeze? (Zughy)
- Milestone set to Oct 15 for feature freeze on Oct 1 (possibly a dev meeting day) (Krock)
- Reserved additional time to assign milestones and to solve the MTG_follow-up issue https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/13800
PR discussion/reviews
- Import Irrlicht (wsor4035)
- Generally agreed but needs addressing Desour's requirements before merge
- It will have to be merged eventually (sfan5)
- Code style guidelines for Java code There are already guidelines for C++ and Lua code, but not (Android-specific) Java code. It can be as simple as, "Use Android Studio's linter/formatter." (srifqi)
- Volunteers are welcome to extend this page, e.g. srifqi: https://dev.minetest.net/Android_code_style_guidelines
- A follow up for Issue 13583: Is there a draft already that I missed? This can be great for documenting supported OS/env. (srifqi)
- The suggested document is currently WIP
- Be clear how old toolchains we support, e.g. by supported Ubuntu LTS versions to use newer libraries or C++ revisions (Krock)
- Dual Wielding has been waiting for a feedback since 6 months. Since we're busy, I'd suggest to prioritise MTG removal and postpone this feature to 5.9, so that core devs can review it without any pressure (Zughy)
- No progress and the issues could yet not be solved. Removed milestone, marked as draft.
Concept approval for:
- Refactored the liquid system, and added an optional feature for liquids to flow to the next slope
- Comment written to clarify the situation (Krock)
- Fix liquid falling if in "float" group
- Concept approved by Krock
2023-06-25
Organization Discussion
- Start considering a hypothetical new name, possibly privately. See Here (Zughy)
- Will be discussed internally
PR discussion/reviews
- Less than two months to 5.8: we should consider what to do with a few issues/PRs in the milestone to avoid a last month burst (Zughy)
- Not yet urgent. PRs and issues will be resolved when people have time for it.
Also discussed:
- Debundle Minetest Game
- Question about "featured" marks to make it more visible to newcomers
2023-05-28
Organization Discussion
- welcome srifqi
- 5.7.1 release (justified by Android crashes)
PR discussion/reviews
- Discuss and concept approve or close "Roadmap: needs approval" PRs
- make falling node checks check for protection TL;DR: Some server made ladders falling, and protection doesn't protect from fall through on_punch by other players. Possible solutions include making the registered on_punch/on_dig/on_placenode function overwritable, or only checking for protection in on_punch. What to do? (DS)
- Removed roadmap approval needed label. (DS)

2023-05-14
Organization Discussion
- close all the Jude's PRs that haven't been adopted (Zughy)
- done
PR discussion/reviews
- "Dual Wielding" I think OP is waiting for a core dev feedback, see their last comment (Zughy)
- ???
2023-04-30
Notes inherited from the meeting 2023-04-16
Organization Discussion
- now that 5.7 has been released, we should write down a roadmap for 5.8 onwards (Zughy)
- No special action taken. Might need picking up later again.
PR discussion/reviews
- "Move code style guidelines into repo" Do we want this? (I'm myself neutral now that code blocks are no longer broken on the wiki.) (DS)
- Generally okay but updating it might be cumbersome. Guidelines should apply to all Minetest (group) projects (Krock)
- Closed by author (DS).
- "Conditional textures for nodes, bulk texture changing" Support for this? Or for the alternative linked in the original post? Or none? (Zughy)
- Yet another feature request. No interest shown. Marked as low priority.
- "Add utility script to update/generate *.tr files" roadmap approval or rejection?
- Answer posted in https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/13437
- Irrlicht as a submodule - how to fix Android compatibility? Ideas are welcome.
- Fix the Android script later? Waiting on numberZero when they have time (Krock)
2023-04-02
Organization Discussion
- Where should we post next meetings notice? (Zughy)
- rubenwardy moved them to https://github.com/orgs/minetest/discussions
- People with read access: MTE + MTG + triagers
- Complaints about connected glass changes - changes the meaning of glasslike_framed_optional and there's no way for texture packs to control it.
- Reverted for now. Let's keep it as a subject for 5.8.0-dev
- 5.7.0 release
- Aiming for 9 April or earlier. Not enough developer activity in this meeting.
2023-03-19
Organization Discussion
- Current roadmap evaluation and draft of the next one (Zughy)
- Still need focus on UI/UX improvements, entities were not touched at all, dehardcoding shouldn't be a point
2023-03-05
Organization Discussion
- Feature freeze? (Zughy)
- Yes, now (sfan5, x2048).
- Dedicate the upcoming version to Jude/TurkeyMcMac (Zughy, original proposal by jp)
- sfan5 will do that when updating the credits
- We're choking on PRs again: shouldn't MT advertise itself more so to potentially find new core devs and/or recruit existing contributors? (Zughy)
- There is not much that can be done about it, wait for new devs.
PR discussion/reviews
- "SSCSM execution" (TurkeyMcMac)
- Should the PR be reviewed in parts? If so, it can be reviewed at this point.
- It would be good to divide up the work of implementing the various SSCSM APIs, if other people have time to work on this. See the TODO list in the PR description. To see how to implement SSCSM APIs, you can look at src/script/lua_api/l_csm.cpp and src/script/lua_api/l_csm_nodemeta.cpp.
- Meeting note: x2048 might have a look at it. It should be merged in small chunks, preferably with unittests (Krock)
- "Reorder client initialization" needs sfan's take to unlock the status of the PR (Zughy)
- sfan5 unblocked it; will be reviewed when time comes.
- MariaDB Yes or No (Krock: Yes) - who could test this easily? (Krock)
- obsolete entry
- "Dual Wielding" How should we go ahead with this? (sfan5)
- Yes: item definition flag (sfan5 answered)
- Add world-independent storage directory for mods - approved, but there's concerns about how multiple instances of Minetest running will cause issues for modders. Is this acceptable? What should modders do in these situations? Is the design fundamentally flawed (rubenwardy)
- Ideas: callback-based updates for sane locking (sfan5)
2023-01-08
Organization Discussion
- "Host the generated Lua API documentation under api.minetest.net" (Zughy)
- Assigned to rubenwardy to move it to GitHub
- Feature freeze starting on January 22? I suggest to keep every feature currently listed in the milestone (Zughy)
- focus on the Privacy Policy (sample available)
- postponed the main menu (settings) rework to 5.8.0
- minetest.get_player_window_information reviews requested
- Dual Wield should be reviewed because it's what the players want
PR discussion/reviews
- "Static binary builds for Linux on common architectures": yes, no? (Zughy)
- AppImages are coming and Docker is an universal solution. Additional static binaries are not necessary.
- "Allow zoom even with overwritten default FOV": There seems to be some disagreement on this in the comments. Is the change acceptable? (TurkeyMcMac)
- Handled (Krock)
- "Add node texture variants": What item properties should be allowed to vary by variant? (TurkeyMcMac)
- Currently supported: "tiles", "overlay_tiles", and "special_tiles"
- Others that could be supported:
- "inventory_image" and "wield_image": May be unnecessary as there's a separate PR for settings these using item metadata.
- "mesh": Could be complicated to implement, I haven't looked into it.
- Should all properties vary based on the same bitfield ("param2_variant") or is this bad API design? (A single bitfield is not a functional limitation. It is still possible to let properties effectively vary independently by making a variant for each possible combination.)
- -> Feedbacks given for the concept. Might be discussed again in the next meeting.
2022-12-04
Organization Discussion
- 5.7 release when? (Zughy)
- somewhen in January is good (rubenwardy, sfan5)
- we should decide on the new roadmap (sfan5)
- Commented an analysis of the previous roadmap and suggestions on how to increase "success rate" (Krock)
PR discussion/reviews
- "Dual wielding": can someone please take care of this PR if the author doesn't come back? It's a huge feature for modders (Zughy)
- Author came back. Check the progress as usual.
2022-10-23
PR discussion/reviews
- Add vector() constructor - It seems this proposal is controversial. Its fate should be decided. (TurkeyMcMac)
2022-10-09
PR discussion/reviews
- Add support for attached facedir/4dir nodes (comment) - Thoughts on adding this as part of the PR? (TurkeyMcMac)
- Add callback on_mapblocks_changed - Decide whether this is the right approach. We could go for something with node granularity, but it would probably be more expensive. (TurkeyMcMac)
- Implement some VoxelManip functionality safely using LuaJIT's FFI library - Decide whether the added complexity is worth it. (TurkeyMcMac)
- Use .md extension for markdown files - Please decide once and for all (Zughy)
- Shader brightness issue
2022-09-25
PR discussion/reviews
- Set visibility of players/hide them from others has been rebased twice, it's from 2020. Can anyone have a look at it? Or put it in the 5.7.0 milestone, I don't know (Zughy)
- New physics modifiers concept discussion (Wuzzy)
- The same goes for Show relative screenshot filename on chat when applicable (Zughy)
2022-09-11
- Item pickup general concept discussion
- Item movement unit tests required for bugfix PR #12595
2022-08-28
Organization Discussion
- Add some bugs to the 5.6.1 milestone? (Proposal: each core dev pick one and adds it)
- Two years have passed since the first roadmap brainstorm: create another one to then follow after 5.7? Also to gather feedback
PR discussion/reviews
- Use .md extension for markdown files - yes or no?
- Doc of set_sun/-moon: Absolute orientation and difference in scale - document difference in size or slightly change the scale of both the celestial bodies?
2022-08-14
PR discussion/reviews
- https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AQuestion

- 5.4.0 release plan -> December? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/milestone/17
- -> Rough approximated date for release (after 6 months)
- Roadmap - everyone list 3 goals for development (ie: Improve UI), this can then be condensed into a roadmap of goals.
- Add trusted contributors as issue triagers. https://github.com/orgs/minetest/teams/engine/discussions/25
- Suggested users: Wuzzy, Calinou. Wuzzy was already offered core dev, but refused.
- They would help ensure issue quality (asking for information, editing, closing duplicated) and oragnise issues (labelling, prioritising)
- This doesn't prevent core developers from doing the above.
- celeron55 is willing to trial this, paramat is against this.
- -> Krock, rubenwardy: Demo run with a few chosen people. Rules will be written down during this phase to ensure everything's going well. Needs discussion with paramat.

Progress? * Timed move (#1489) * Merge/close? * nerzhul: close for me * nore: Merge * Krock: Merge * Split block position in SQLite3 database (and use R*Tree) (#1845) * Rebased, performance tests to do soon(tm). * nerzhul: performance is a little bit slower, but it's ridiculous compared to mapblock deserialization part (no bench to show it atm, but i did it 2 years ago on my fork, and SQLite was improved since this date) * Add list_predict formspec element (#1988) * sofar worked on a rebase a while ago. Close or merge a modern version? * New screenshots for website (web#78) https://github.com/minetest/minetest.github.io/issues/78 * ShadowNinja: "good" screenshots are fairly subjective and it doesn't look like we're actually getting anywhere near a decision in the issue thread, therefore I propose assigning someone to choose and install new screenshots. * > Calinou will handle it New business: * First, release blockers: * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5767 Don't add damage flash while punch texture modifier is active #5767 * > Bugfix, punted to next meeting. * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5782 [CSM] Disable preview mod before release #5782 * CSM disabled by default anyways since it's experimental * > Fixed by #5554 * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5728 Block instadig after tool switch #5728 * > Fixed by #5785 * nerzhul: * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5732 (CSM nodedefs/itemdefs read) * maybe close https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5654 * Single/Multiplayer tab merge https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5627 (user UI experience) * > Merge with minor changes * Create world better experience: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5589 * Permit to enable/disable mods on CSM https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5554 (very important) * ShadowNina: CSM is experimental, so I don't think any CSM issues should be blockers * nerzhul: here the problem if a user enable client side modding his experience will be affected by this preview mod, dedicated to modders) * > nerzhul will merge * https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5589 (start world after creation) * LMDB backend (https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/4206) * nerzhul: Close?

Minetest developer meeting 2017-05-06 Old business: "Add configurable key bindings" (#1439) Rebased by nore, needs tweaks and merge.

Split block position in SQLite3 database (and use R*Tree) (#1845) Rebased, performance tests to do soon(tm). nerzhul: performance is a little bit slower, but it's ridiculous compared to mapblock deserialization part (no bench to show it atm, but i did it 2 years ago on my fork, and SQLite was improved since this date) Add list_predict formspec element (#1988) sofar worked on a rebase a while ago. Close or merge a modern version? Use object property "stepheight" for player stepheight too. (#2056) Agreed to merge, but nobody yet assigned. Make players respect makes_footstep_sound in the object properties (#2852) Agreed to merge, nobody assigned. New business: Add support for multiple listen addresses (#2604) Big patch, but can't really be split up much more since everything's interdependent. Make the player collisionbox settable (#2738) Clean up numeric.h and split FaceFositionCache from it (#3256) Up-to-date and looks more-or-less ready to merge, just needs formal approval. <nerzhul>: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5361 Background color on textarea/field/pwdfield) https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5355: vertical bar in text areas Possible close: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5281 and https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/5279 Documentation update: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/4968 close or not close ?

Minetest developer meeting 2017-04-22 Old business: "getTime refactoring" (#1188) not yet merged (nore) "Delayed shutdown" merged by nerzhul. "Disable Android LevelDB" rebased by nore and merged by nerzhul. "Add configurable key bindings" (#1439) rebased by nore, needs tweaks and merge. Additional hooks for inventory manipulations callbacks (#4035) Needs rebase and cleanup, volunteers? Rename .txt to .md (#5451)? New business: (PRs obtained by sorting by age on GitHub) Schedule Minetest subgame meeting? Coverity: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/12441 Need to triage issues, many legitimate issues to fix. Timed move (#1489) Added formspec element 'KeyEventBox' for charbased input (#1737) Add ability to escape commands with a back-slash (#1768) <ShadowNinja> I may want to tweak this so that it doesn't strip the slash when you type "\foo" (or maybe not? It should at least work for the client-side dot-commands too) Split block position in SQLite3 database (and use R*Tree) (#1845) Use a settings object for the main settings (#1949) <ShadowNinja> I also unified Initialize and InitiallizeAsync, which was necessary to implement this. I think the unification is worth merging even without the settings object change. This conflicts with just about the entire ScriptAPI, so I don't want to rebase it too often :-) Add listpredict to the formspec (#1988) Add non-global mod namespaces (#2039)
