Ideas around meeting structure etc

  • Sean - should we have more of a permanent discussion forum?

  • A lot is in different places, which makes things hard to track

  • Github is intimidating for non-software engineers

  • We technically still have ocio-dev and ocio-user mailing list that used to sort of function as a good searchable in-between

  • Kevin - is it the discussion itself we’re trying to capture or the answer to it?

  • GitHub discussions might be a good solution

  • AI will help solve, but we need to help make it better. Which means better examples, docs, etc first

User / Application stories

  • Have application developers, companies, and users bring their OCIO stories to share - how it’s used, problems, future plans

  • Possible examples: Epic, Dolby

  • Dolby - using OCIO as a testing and reference framework for internal tooling, ACES and otherwise

Daylight Savings

  • Carol proposes not changing meeting times this year, even as times shift around the globe.

  • Please let us know if this is untenable for anyone!
