  - Wynton OS update will coincide with facilities management work on server room, not yet scheduled.

* New four A40 GPU computer
  - Scooter says it has not been ordered yet
  - Should it be a shared Wynton resource?
  - TomG says probably ChimeraX will not be running AlphaFold service on big proteins, runs take too long, 20 hours.
  - Using the new machine for ChimeraX machine learning development, is much easier with root access.
  - Further discussion needed to see if we should get this computer and how we will use it.
  - Scooter says we have about 1 year to spend surplus grant funds.

* Work from home
  - Scooter suggests in January we discuss adding a second week day where lab members go to Mission Bay.
  - TomG suggests we lose out on in-person collaboration opportunities with everyone working from home.

* RCSB mmCIF stylized format
  - MolStar web viewer at RCSB exports mmCIF files that won't open in ChimeraX because not using fixed field widths.
  - RCSB says not to depend on fixed field widths.
  - Greg is asking RCSB to stick to fixed widths.
