Technical Matters
Metadata: Paul has been busy so no update yet for metadata. Next time though, should have something prototyped in next few days.
Prop metadata review with Gary:
✓String names vs. #define names
static_assert(std::string_view == std::string_view) should do it
Encode writability of prop in prop sets in certain actions
✓Encode when added "introduced"
Suites? ofx-suites.yml? (NO, for later)
✓static inline for all
✓C++ generated code -- move into support/include, as a source. With header.
Resolve: will it work on Surf Pro 11? Check hw compat
Arm64: Gary will get a machine soon – who else?
Paul: param interp -- needs prop suite v2, which we'll need for metadata
Will work on that
Questions about where metadata should be: separate suite vs. a property whose value is a prop set?
Organizational Matters
None
Misc
