    initial v1  
    1 In re: I'm on the OpenEXR Technical Steering Committee, and we would really like to help in any way we can; MacPorts has been discussed at more than a few of our biweekly meetings. We'd tried a few times to raise Marcus but never heard anything back. Yes, there has been substantial cleanup with performance improvements the VFX studios have found significant; there have also been a ton of security issues addressed.

    33There is a biweekly TSC Zoom meeting on alternate Thursdays with the next meeting being tomorrow (Thu 6 Oct); the Zoom URL is https://zoom.us/j/96214953481. We extended an invitation to Marcus to join us and discuss what's needed to move forward; if any of you would show up then, we'd be happy to answer any questions and help chart a way forward. As we are discussing how to formalize definitions of ABI stability, your thoughts would be very welcome.

     6The rationale for the splitting off of Imath and its Python bindings, and absorption of Iex and IlmThread into OpenEXR itself, can be found here: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/Imath/blob/main/docs/PortingGuide2-3.md.

     8And the next OpenEXR TSC meeting is on Thursday 3 November; the Zoom URL above is unchanged. Anyone is welcome as a drop-in but if we know you are coming we can refresh ourselves on the state of the OpenEXR port and allocate a goodly chunk of time for you.
