+* ChimeraX 1.6 release
+  * mmCIF out of memory bug reports
+    - There have been 3 mmCIF out of memory bug reports with 1.6 release candidates, possibly just 2 different users.
+    - There were 3 older mmCIF out of memory reports.
+    - All reports on Windows.
+    - The mmCIF files with pdb identifiers are not large
+  * Tom Ferrin observed a 3 minute hang on ChimeraX release candidate startup with 3 timeout messages logged to cxservices checking for ChimeraX updates.  Greg will look into it.
+
+* Chimera release
+  - Ready to release.  Plan is to release on Thursday.  Greg will do it.
+  - Eric made a fix to session exporter last week.
+  - Wynton update to Rocky 8 is being postponed until Fall, but we still will update plato to Rocky 8, possibly in the May 1 day service outage.
+
+* Wynton and BeeGFS
+  - BeeGFS will have a point release in May 7.2.5 to 7.2.9.
+  - BeeGFS 7.3.3 fixes a known hang on Wynton but will not be updated until Fall.
+
+* CGL email
+  - CGL email will use ProofPoint filtering in coming months.
+  - Should get better spam filtering.
+  - Still looking at how to examine rejected email since ProofPoint sometimes has marked legitimate email as spam.
+
+* SVN web service
+  - We have an SVN web service, original for Chimera running.
+  - IT not happy about it since it is so old.
+  - Chimera source distribution switched to tar file many months ago.
+  - Can shut down svn web service.
+
+* NIAID new contract
+  - Still have not heard when new NIAID contract will start.  Waiting for GuideHouse.
+  - Scooter will talk to Nada Midani soon if we receive no info.
+  - Uncertain whether we have Thursday NIAID meeting.  Phil Cruz did not respond to suggestion to reschedule last week's meeting to this week.
+
+* Chimera source code on github
+  - Greg suggested putting Chimera source code on github.
+  - Scooter does not think we should put effort into this.
+  - Greg says he is putting MidasPlus source code in github as side project.
