OCIO TSC Meeting Notes

  • ACES 2.0 
    • Kevin still working on optimizations  - will regroup next week to see where we're all at once Remi is back from holiday
    • Configs:
      • Thomas has done the work to update the v1 ACES configs - adding the things, bug fixes
      • Need to decide the default view, small naming things
      • 2.0 ACES configs are branched - spreadsheets are generated and fixed up, folks should take a look (linked in the PR) 
      • Carol: could we wait to update ACES 2.0 configs for 2.4.1? Is there a way to do that and maintain API/ABI? 
      • Thomas: also windows CI is failing on the wheels Thomas generated off Remi's PR
      • Should we make two configs for the different white points? At least for now until we decide what to do long term in the UI/UX area of handling that in a more flexible way?
        • Group seems to agree that two configs for D60 and D65 makes sense - though how applications decide to handle that, and which configs they ship by default, sort of makes it tricky. 
        • Might be good to increase context in the docs to help people/app developers choose configs based on their use case
        • Thomas will look into how doing white point based configs would work based on the spreadsheets and we'll go from there
        • New token in the filename too, will need to decide what that looks like
  • SIGGRAPH Recap
    • Had a bit of a discussion around NanoColor - more to come. Need to make clear the "big picture" and the "story" around the decision making process - how we got to where we are, and where do we go from here, long term.Â
