Does VA clean itself up after use?
System
Does / could VisualAnnotate clean up the massive and numerous extended attributes it creates when reviewing a single file? The reason I ask is that there is some considerable overhead in the EA's it creates... also, we currently have a WF step that deploys all of the EA's, which would need modification if this is not already packaged.
Okay, so a few of you reading this are thinking, "It's pretty simple to build your own tool to do this" and I hear you (or at least the voices in my head!) but why reinvent the wheel, if that's the case?

When you say the WF is deploying the EAs - are you talking about the WF invoking DataDeploy to deploy the EAs? If so - I believe you could filter out the VA EAs within the DD config file.

The deployment of EA's is not really what's important to me, it's the cleanup of the EA's. Do you know if VA cleans up after itself?

Probably not - intentionally so - as I believe the markups are considered valuable audit information that should be versioned [by default] -- which is why I asked about the possibility of just filtering out the EAs from being deployed rather than trying to remove editorial information from the asset itself. If you really want to do the latter - you certainly can do so - before you submit the file to staging use an externaltask to remove the EA(s) associated with VA from the asset.
