     22* ChimeraX release
     23  - Tom suggests release early next week.  Tom posted Boltz tool to X/Twitter last week to get more testing and want to wait a week to see if bugs come in.
     24  - Still have 18 active tickets for 1.10.  About 15 assigned to Greg.  Greg is on vacation.
     25  - Need to fix bug where request to register is happening every year.
     26  - Will discuss release schedule on Thursday with Greg and need to remilestone, fix or close 1.10 tickets.
     27
     28* Allow Windows and Linux crash reports?
     29  - We almost never get any useful info from Windows and Linux crash reports.
     30  - Windows crash reporting has been disabled in ChimeraX for several years.  But we reenabled it after 1.9 in the daily builds to see if the faulthandler traceback info has improved.
     31  - Eric and Tom agree we should disable crash reports on Windows and Linux in 1.10.
     32  - In daily build we will keep Windows crash reports enabled so Eric can test a possible fix to a common Windows open dialog crash of turning of garbage collection while open dialog shown.
     33  - In daily build we will allow Linux crash reporting but only if user provides email address.
     34
     35* New ViewDock test and release plan
     36  - Piet is finishing his ViewDock work but it still needs testing and release.
     37  - Eric says it is tricky to test because old ViewDockX needs to be removed to properly test the new ViewDock since it registers for the same file types.
     38  - Elaine and John Irwin should do initial testing using daily build, and Eric will make needed fixes.
     39
     40* ChimeraX build system problems
     41  - Error in tests because it can't find Python.h.  Zach says he is aware of it and will fix it.  Eric can ignore it for now.
     42  - Mac hdutil says it can't release image.  Zach will look into it.  Seems like a parallel processing problem where one process is using the image when another tries to eject it.  Might put a sleep 5 in before eject, or might try to re-eject on failure.
