I would just prefer as little tampering with the footage as possible after it leaves my bluray drive.
And technically, shouldn't it be around 1280x544? We should eliminate as much down-sampling as possible. Id suggest putting the final compiled clips of 1280x544 (Lagarith YV12/square pixels) into a project of the same size, then outputting to the 1280x720. If you are down sampling from 1080p 1920x800 and end up with 1280x532, I suppose the final project compilation settings should be set to the majority height. Whether it be 544 or 532.
Just a suggestion.

Reflections of Style, where the editors tell YOU how to run the project.

He did bring up the whole 2.35:1 vs. 16:9 issue and we landed on, stick with 16:9 for the time being until we see what everybody's sources are going to be. If everybody is going to have a 2:35:1, then yeah we should go with that. The more important thing though was to get the track listing up since that's what everybody was waiting for. Tech specs can be hashed out, but getting people's creative juices flowing was more important (though I do agree, we should come up with a standard across the board here soon).

And I was really looking forward to this too...

In the words of Brad: "It's 2012. 720p."
Frame rate - 23.976
Aspect ratio - 2.35:1 (cinematic - square pixels only)
Resolution: 1280x544
Editing programs - Whatever you want. Go nuts.
