OCIO TSC Meeting Notes

  • Technical Writer proposal - Mark Tichener:
    • Would like a technical writer to help with the UX technical documentation
    • An initial brief has been written, and would be good to leverage some of the work presented in previous SIGGRAPH courses.
    • Mark also wants to also include aspects of this years' SIGGRAPH course.
    • Carol has spoken with John Mertic about what resourses the ASWF can provide, and has recieved some initial candidates.
    • Next step is to go to the ASWF Board, as this would be an extra expenditure for the TAC.
  • SIGGRAPH:
    • BOF - Fully remote - possibly a larger audience. Do we want a Q/A? Some pre-canned questions would be good too.
    • Open Source Days - Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th of August. - Not much info about virtual / in person, might be like the first year (ie happening alongside other SIGGRAPH events)
    • Perhaps we could arrange another meetup, either social or colour related.
  • Issue 1621 - Default configs: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenColorIO/issues/1621
    • Was discussed at configs meeting
    • Add function call - create_default(string) which would generate one of the builtin configs
    • perhaps presence or absense of the OCIO environment variable could drive this
    • perhaps OCIO env var could be URI driven, to choose between the defaults - this might have a benefit if ever OCIO goes web
  • Issue 1639 - Interchange roles: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenColorIO/issues/1639
    • Should they be required? If they were required, it would be easier for DCC's to integrate with other colour management systems
    • Hoping to have this for OCIO 2.2
    • Lots of discussion in the issue for various interchange rolls, CIE compliance, ICC failures, etc.
    • Use of chromatic adaption seems to be a big sticking point.
  • No labels
