(I can't seem to edit the above post)

Some thoughts...

I love Filmlight's two-page "Colour Workflow Quick Reference" for Baselight 5.2: ("FL-BL-QR-0867-BaselightColourWorkflow.pdf", found here. I really admire the economy of this document's framing and consideration of different kinds of color workflows and production realities / constraints, w.r.t. specific parts of the Baselight pipeline; which itself maps nicely to OCIO-v2 concepts.

This is a long way of saying, I think it would be cool if we had tutorials, guidelines, or considerations for using OCIO in categorically different workflows or situations.

The Flame Colour Management documentation is also pretty fantastic and increasingly relevant -- particularly sections like Guidelines for Configuring Custom Color Transform Chains Manually, perhaps with BuiltinTransforms swapped in for SynColor CTFs.
