Will discuss SDF blending, potential Mathematica Link and VDB Tool. Other issues to raise at the meeting - CI and build resources. Need wider machines (more cores) for build as the existing 2 core machines take 1hr+ to build. Attempts to use ccache etc. not sufficient is we modify a core file/header. Current build resources artificially restricting our build matrix due to turnaround time. 6) Particle Surfacing Nick to finish his PR following Dan's feednback. Dan could remove some functionality that is closer to Nick's work but level of detail feature is enough difference to keep. Documentation of these tools should be sufficient to eliminate any confusion for users. 7) VDB Tool Up for review on Github. Requires CMake and more unittests. 8) Richard joining ILM Richard joining ILM from DNEG at end of month. 9) Next meeting Next meeting is in two weeks, March 15th, 2022. 1pm-2pm EST (GMT-5).
