Present: Bastien Montagne, Matt McLin, Micheal Kowalski

- UsdSkel export:
- Feature is now stable and ready for review, but getting it there was harder than expected.
- Complex modifiers stacks cannot be represented in USD.
- Solution is likely to support two cases:
- Basic export of rigs, with most of the modifiers disabled.
- Export of full complex animation through baking into point caches.
- Bastien will handle review.
- Target release is now Blender 4.1.
- 4.1 targets:
- No real new targets added yet. Ideas:
- Support subdivision schema for export?
- Bastien reminds the team that now is also a good moment to check on bug reports for Blender 4.0.
