Minutes
- Action item follow-up [0:05-0:40]
- Confluence instance (Cory O.)
- Instance is now available (http://wiki.aswf.io/display/WGUSD)
- Set up with the Confluence Knowledge Base template.
- Investigating moving the USDWG agendas and meeting minutes into the wiki rather than having them in github (ease of maintenance).
- The group will start to populate the KB with information from the brainstorming doc and elsewhere.
- Once we have a significant amount of content in the wiki, we can review and organize according to the content, rather than trying to determine what the structure should be up front.
- Each session should include a review of new content added to the KB by members.
- Proposal for USD Interest summary of threads (Alex S.)
- https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ifeLnR7QQCbSi98O3J_EX4TzCmlSDNMfOPWaj1058sA/edit?usp=sharing
- Would be nice to produce this summary on a monthly cadence, so we can identify trends before important milestones like SIGGRAPH (determine areas of focus for sessions, etc.)
- Would also be nice for this to be in-line in the wiki (possibly with the nice PDF as an optional download) to make it easy to access. We could then send out a single link to usd-interest.
- CMake Superbuilds (Carson B.)
- Issues with nested superbuilds causing issues in the OpenEXR project, removing super builds as a result.
- Intel uses nested super builds, would like to understand what the core of the issue is that OpenEXR ran into.
- It turns out it wasn’t an ACTUAL issue with the superbuild, just someone thinking that overriding find_package might not work in the future: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openexr/issues/752
- Superbuild should remain separate from the project, a separate repository that people can choose to integrate or not.
- Carson to investigate sharing the project, likely as an intel-hosted git repo.
- IPython/Jupyter Notebooks (JT)
- More information added to the document linked below.
- Looking for more feedback as to how others in the group are making use of Jupyter notebooks.
- Investigating whether it’s possible to embed a notebook in the wiki.
- Closing/Action Items [0:40-0:50]
- USD Superbuild progress (Carson B.)
- Knowledge Base Content
- Transfer wg-usd wiki content to confluence (Cory O.)
- USD Interest Summary of Threads in Wiki (Alex S.)
- Review group contributions to the KB (Cory O.)
