OCIO TSC Meeting Notes

• ASWF Dev Days:
  • Participants having trouble to build the project (on Windows mostly)
• Build Scripts:
  • How do we improve the install procedures.
    • Should we test it in CI somehow?
  • Build process - improve use of cmake builtin features to help reduce build wrapper complexity
    • Mentioned USD build script https://github.com/PixarAnimationStudios/OpenUSD/blob/release/build_scripts/build_usd.py
    • Our CMake also regularly breaks for new versions of deps because we use ExternalProject_Add instead of FetchContent (we re-create CMake target manually for deps)
    • Mark R: The way we handle / support debug builds on Windows could be improved
  • Do we need a wrapper script to document available options a basic 'help' option
  • Should we document / make available dev environment?
    • Existing ocio docker image from wg-ci?
    • Github codespace?
  • Should we install ocioview dependencies when installing via pip
    • Asking to install missing deps on launch? 
    • Splitting ocioview into optional pip dependencies [ocioapps] ?
    • Splitting ocioview into its own PyPI package, then always install all deps? Would help with versioning independently of the core library.
• Items for next meeting agenda:
  • Info
