I'm still completely confused what the title they chose is supposed to mean. What's ending? They don't say. I scrolled through that whole page and if just looks like their normal release showcase.
Does this just mean that they're bumping up the version number to 3.0 with some big new core features? It sounds like something significant is coming to an end, like Blender isn't going to keep being Blender.

- mkaic 5y ago2.93 marks the last Blender 2.X release, which is significant because Blender 2.0 came out in August of 2000. 21 years of 2.X development is the "Era" they're referring to. The next major release will be 3.0!
- dwheeler 5y agoOk, but what is expected to be different in 3.0? That is left unsaid.
- edflsafoiewq 5y ago3.0 is just a normal release, they're just switching to a new numbering scheme. See https://code.blender.org/2020/02/release-planning-2020-2025/ https://code.blender.org/2020/02/release-planning-2020-2025/.
