+For our OTIO output to effectively interface with other programs
+using the OpenTimelineIO Python API, our custom schema need to be
+specified and registered with the API.
+
+As per OTIO documentation, a class such as this one must be created,
+the schema must be registered with a PluginManifest, and the path to that
+manifest must be added to $OTIO_PLUGIN_MANIFEST_PATH; then the schema
+is ready to be used.
