Hi @BenFrantzDale thanks for submitting this! We discussed this in our TSC meeting last week (see notes under Forum here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openvdb/master/tsc/meetings/2021-03-16.md). This is an interesting concept which some have experimented...

> If there is a developing discussion among the maintainers about this, I'd be keen to follow it and can hopefully contribute 👍 I did a quick search in our...

@tsvilans, there was some discussion about this last Tuesday, with a motion proposing a move to pybind: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openvdb/pull/1094 Also a more public e-mail chain here: https://lists.aswf.io/g/openvdb-dev/topic/replacing_boost_python/83416891?p=,,,20,0,0,0::recentpostdate%2Fsticky,,,20,2,0,83416891 There will most likely...

Sorry for the delay replying here. I've created a new issue which specifically aims to track the work required for a migration to pybind11: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openvdb/issues/1124. If anyone has any more...
