+# OpenCue TSC Meeting Notes 8 Nov 2023
+
+Secretary: Brian Cipriano
+
+Agenda/Notes:
+
+* OOM protection logic: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenCue/pull/1317
+    * PR is reviewed and merged.
+    * Has been running in production for a while now, working well in 90% of cases.
+    * Other 10% are hitting a race condition with RQD. RQD sends fresh host report after OOM
+      decision has been made but not actuated yet, clearing the OOM state in the database. Frame is
+      rescheduled with same memory requirements instead of increased.
+    * Followup change to RQD coming soon, kill frame with correct OOM code so database state isn't
+      required.
+* RQD env var expansion: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenCue/pull/1323
+    * Expanding any env vars in the command itself in RQD, before command is executed on host.
+    * This works already on Linux, Windows doesn't expand vars in command as command written to a
+      temp file batch script.
+    * Env vars should be expanded as late as possible, host/RQD env might differ slightly from frame
+      env.
+    * Let's move the change into the Windows section.
+* RQD copy env vars from host: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenCue/pull/1324
+    * Needed to preserve the host PYTHONPATH in the frame env.
+    * Reviewed, change is too broad, left comments on the PR.
+* DB indexes: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenCue/pull/1304
+    * Adding new database indexes to resolve some performance issues.
+    * Has some commented out pieces, why?
+    * Diego to check and update PR.
+* CUDA RQD image: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenCue/pull/1327
+    * Let's try to copy RQD package from base image to reduce duplication.
+    * Should revisit the RQD base image at some point to see if we can upgrade past Python 3.6.
+* Blender plugin: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/OpenCue/pull/1309
+    * Plugin working e2e on Nuwan's machine, getting renders back.
+    * Starting review of draft PR.
+    * Would like to see a doc on how to install/use the plugin, will help to understand the code.
+* CueGUI PySide compatibility change is rolling out to production soon, working in initial tests but
+  will get more feedback as usage expands.
