+* ChimeraX 1.7 release candidate
+  - Eric, Zach and Tom ready for release candidates
+  - Not sure if Greg is ready, did not attend meeting.
+  - Reviewed 1.7 tickets.  Greg has about half-dozen that look important to fix for 1.7.  About 10 others look like they can be remilestoned.
+  - Will schedule new meeting as soon as Greg available this week and remilestone tickets and assess remaining tickets.  Then decide if release candidate must be delayed.
 
+* Wynton downtime
+  - Wynton down Monday October 30 - Friday Nov 3, possibly fewer days.
+  - Any way we can keep ChimeraX web site and downloads running?  Greg would know best.  Seems hard.
+  - Bug report and mailing list email will be held on cgl mail server until plato comes back up.
+  - We will announce downtime Thursday and/or Friday, user list and Twitter.
+
+* ChimeraX for Windows System on Linux (WSL)
+  - User asked about making ChimeraX work on WSL.
+  - Zach says he installed ChimeraX on Ubuntu 22 WSL installation and it ran two months ago.  Says it is significantly slower than running on Windows.
+  - Zach believes a ChimeraX on Windows can read and write files written by WSL.
+  - Tom will ask user what their WSL ChimeraX problem is.
+
+* Phenix workshop in Kansas
+  - Zach will give ChimeraX cryoEM talk/demo/tutorial at Phenix workshop at Kansas University, November 9.
+  - He could show Phenix douse or emplace_local tools using ChimeraX interface.
+  - Need to install Phenix and test with workshop version.
+  - Also should show basic cryoEM viz in ChimeraX.
+  - Zach on vacation, back Oct 30.
   
+* Grafana web services monitoring
+  - Zach and Greg have not worked on it since last meeting.
