OCIO TSC Working Group Meeting Notes

  • Summary of PRs in progress

    • Doug and Patrick summarized the PRs currently on GitHub.  As always, we would appreciate people taking time to review the PRs.

    • We are planning a 2.0.2 release for SIGGRAPH that includes the bug fixes and minor enhancements accumulated since 2.0.1.

    • The Gamut Compression and OpenFX plug-ins are nearing completion and looking good for 2.1.

  • Review of 2.1 milestones

  • Stricter validation of v1 configs

    • Kevin: We've had some instances of v1 configs that have not loaded successfully in a v2 app because v2 does more thorough validation checks.  This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it's something to be aware of.  Examples we've run into include:

      • A config not loading in Maya 2022 due to a FileTransform pointing to a file that did not exist, via a context variable.

      • Getting additional warnings for undeclared roles.

    • Kevin: Some v1 configs that don't pass validation may need edits to make them forward compatible with v2.

    • Action Item:  Doug to update the documentation to make note of this potential issue and encourage people to run the v2 version of ociocheck on their v1 configs.
