• USDWG Leadership (comand)
  • Looking to rotate the USD WG Chair as a replacement for Cory
    • Main goal is to bring a new perspective, new energy
    • Cory to remain available for support and assistance (as a TAC sponsor)
  • Low overhead job: focus mostly on keeping meetings going, maintaining the agenda on track, etc.
  • Q/A on Working Group needs:
    • TAC has been trying to narrow the definition of a Working Group (time-bound, eventually comes to an end). How does the USD WG fit this definition?
      • USD WG sits relatively outside of this definition, as it focuses on supporting community-lead initiatives rather than attempting to solve a specific problem.
      • No pressure from the TAC to change the operating model of the USD WG
      • USD WG seen as a great forum to bring information, issues and value to the attention of the community
    • Connection to Pixar seen as needed to continue driving the conversation
      • Pixar still "owns" USD: new proposals and changes go through Pixar. Direct link is valuable.
      • Community engagement to drive ideas is still essential.
    • Cory's contribution in leading the conversations, asking the right questions was seen as beneficial to the group

    • About 1 year
