 = Discussion =
 
+* Daily builds
+  - Builds have failed the last 3 days because update to PyQt 6.8 could not be fetched by Github Actions.
+  - Zach said by email he will fix this.
+
+* PySide6
+  - Should next ChimeraX release use PySide6?
+  - Would need to start testing now.
+  - Grant proposals in next 6 months may reduce ChimeraX development time available.
+  - Need to discuss further.  Who would take responsibility for PySide6 testing and fixes?
+
+* Scenes
+  - Piet finished documenting scenes API, ready for review.
+  - Piet will submit pull request to incorporate scenes API in bundle that will not be put in distribution yet.
+
+* N453 door lock problem
+  - Still can't use keypad to keep N453 door unlocked.
+  - Greg submitted a ticket in December.  No word yet.
+  - Greg will ask again.
+
+* Anisotropic ellipsoid depiction
+  - Eric having trouble saving sessions with AtomShapeDrawing class that Greg made for nucleotides.
+  - Eric will make a ticket demonstrating problem.
+  - Greg will investigate error saving sessions.
+
+* pyKVFinder
+  - KVFinder crashes often on Windows only.
+  - Eric made standalone test case that only needs Python that crashes using ChimeraX --nogui.
+  - Test does not crash if ChimeraX python executable used directly.
+  - What about starting via chimerax executable is different than starting using python?
+  - Eric will run more tests including making chimerax launcher code only call Py_Main() like python startup.
