= Discussion =
  * ChimeraX pre-release
    * ~~pdbe/pdbj still need to be documented in open command
    * Cache behavior
      - CCD cache location should be documented and managed manually
      - No mechanism (for now) for checking whether cached file is up to date
    * Mac distribution method
      - TomG will take a look at why dragging from dmg results in app failure on first open
      - TomG will update the dmg compression method
    * Linux distribution method
      - Sticking with .tar.gz
      - Greg will see if any libraries are missing for CentOS 7
    * chimerax-users@cgl.ucsf.edu will be separate from chimera-users@cgl.ucsf.edu
    * Download URL
      - Will be added to home page
      - Will be "www" not "preview"
  * Best strategy on how to update pypi dependencies
    * Greg changed install command so that updates will not be installed if sufficiently new package is already installed
    * Test new package versions periodically.  What is the easiest way of doing this?  Get list of updated packages weekly.
    * Change all >= to == now
  * Chimera 1 update

== Action Items ==
  * TomG will look into Mac distribution method
  * Conrad will create ChimeraX users mailing list
