Fedora 25 Alpha and processing.

About processing, you can find more from processing website.
Processing is a flexible software sketchbook and a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts. Since 2001, Processing has promoted software literacy within the visual arts and visual literacy within technology. There are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use Processing for learning and prototyping. 
Is simple to use. You can use with Java also with python and android mode.
Come with many examples and tutorials.
Today I tested with Fedora 25 alpha.
I download the 64bits tgz file. I extract the archive into my home user.
I used the binary file to run it and I install some modes from menu Tools and them Modes tab.
I run one simple code to see if is running without errors.
And working well, see the result:

Linux application Flowblade version 1.8 .

This video editor is a multitrack non-linear video editor for Linux released under GPL 3 license.
I try to use also with Fedora Linux distro ( Fedora 25 alpha) but not work for me.
I don't see in Fedora anything like python-gi-cairo.
Also, I put this issue under GitHub project, maybe will be fixed.

News about Blender second release candidate and other projects.

The Chairman Blender Foundation and producer Blender Institute, Mr. Ton Roosendaal come with this news about second release candidate and other projects:

Hi everyone,

Here are notes from today's 14 UTC meeting in irc.freenode.net 

#blendercoders.

1) Blender 2.78 RC2

- Second release candidate is out! 
http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.78/

- Release logs are also taking shape:
https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.78
https://www.blender.org/features/2-78/

Based on tracker reporting and further testing we either do a RC3 or 

the actual release this week. Sergey Sharybin and Bastien Montagne are

 monitoring it closely.

2) Other projects and 2.8

- Currently Blender for OSX links to an Apple system library for 

quicktime (qtkit).
This has been deprecated for long, and will be removed from 

XCode 10.12.
We have to decide if we want to drop this, and make Blender for 

OS X use ffmpg for 
all codecs.

- Julian Eisel uploaded custom manipulators patch for review 
https://developer.blender.org/D2232
Code docs

https://wiki.blender.org/index.php?title=User:Julianeisel/Custom_Manipulators

- Mike Erwin is in Amsterdam, with Dalai Felinto and others 

he will do design sessions
on the 2.8 viewport. Expect interesting logs and docs!

Thanks,

-Ton-
