Support Thinkbox Deadline for network processing jobs

[edgetech]

We have a larger render farm able to handle jobs for many different applications, but we have had to dedicate the PhotoScan Pro nodes to this one purpose since there isn't a clean way to integrate job management into a different job manager like Deadline, Qube!, or RoyalRender. I would love to see official support for using a 3rd party job scheduler to submit PhotoScan jobs. From what I can see in the public APIs, it shouldn't be terribly difficult to add support for something like this.

Very many VFX firms use Deadline.  This would be a smart move IMHO.

Is there any update on possible movement this direction? We would love to be able to send jobs to a single render manager, including those from PhotoScan Pro. I'm guessing opening a couple of private APIs used by the current render manager would make all the difference to supporting this with another tool.

Any news on this topic ?
We could really use this integration.
Thank you.
