Do you know web development and want to help an project not look as though it was built in the 90s, and start providing modern documentation & onboarding for devs / users? Looking to upgrade ifcopenshell.org and blenderbim.org :) Send me a message!

Yes. Go . Go . When IfcAnnotation is presented as a 2D drawing, the text labels dynamically display BIM properties or attributes. "SILL HEIGHT" is not a text object, but the IFC Description attribute of the annotated level.

JavaScript is probably unnecessary - but can be used to progressively enhance stuff. Add alt text to images so people paying per MB can understand what the images are for (and, you know, accessibility).

@LovesTha for the premier FOSS project outside of the Linux kernel, both are painful choices. Continuing to use SVN suggests laziness, but choosing Slack forces principled people to compromise their open principles unnecessarily to participate. There's nothing Slack does that can't be done just as well by a FOSS option. I've explained it in more detail :) - davelane.nz/notslack

I like how people often refer to open source code as not production ready considering the absolute horrors I’ve seen in proprietary code.

There’s some magical thinking that many of us are guilty that big-time company-owned projects somehow have all these quality processes.

Let's talk document management! supports for building operations - all related drawings, schedules, specifications, manuals, and certificates. Any object can show you its associated documents, including references to subsections and chapters! Also supported are subdocuments and superseding documents!

Yes. Go . To celebrate the work done on IFC4.3 I'll be promoting awareness of the lesser-known capabilities of . To begin with: IFC supports , texture maps, and materials for archviz. Lighting models are compatible with glTF & X3D. Have you seen signage in BIM models when they should've used textures? Can you round-trip archviz with the design team? Yes you can!

Yes. Go . Go . Today's fun fact: the ISO BIM standard allows you to store messaging IDs of organisations and people. Did you ever want to store the IRC chatroom where your manufacturer buddies hang out? Yes you can.

When I refactored the Add-on at the start of the year, I fully decoupled the code that manipulates open data standards from Blender. The end result is that now there is a high level, expressive free software API for the entire industry to automate, generate, and manipulate BIM data. It's still early days, but the future is bright!
