Storing Anim Clips with Layer Animation

[Eric Thivierge]

Hello to anyone familiar with storing anim clips and working with 
animation layers.

How are things regarding this these days? I remember some flaky stuff 
being mentioned from Steve Caron a while back in regards to anim layers 
and ref models. If I store animation for our reference models, should we 
bake the anim down and save an action source of that or are they stable 
enough for us to store into the actions as well and be able to reapply 
them without issue?

Thanks,
Eric T.
