 = Discussion =
 
+* CGL email server
+ - Discussed steps to migrate Trac and ChimeraX mailing list when UCSF IT takes over cgl.ucsf.edu email domain.
+
+* Improve ChimeraX nightly build emails
+ - The nightly build emails often say builds did not reach plato.
+ - Eric notes those builds often succeed and the email is sent before the builds complete.
+ - Want the email to be deferred until builds complete so we don't waste time looking at whether compilation failed due to new commits.
+ - Email should indicate if there were build errors.
+ - Zach will look into improving this.
+
+* ChimeraX package updates
+ - Discussed updating to Qt 6.11, numpy 2, PySide 6.11, Python 3.14.
+ - We will update to Qt 6.11 but wait on switching PyQt to PySide so we can easily track the cause of new bugs.
+ - Tom will look at making ChimeraX code compliant with numpy 2.
+ - There is no numpy 1 binary distribution for Python 3.14 so we would like to update to numpy 2 before updating Python to 3.14.
+
+* Prebuilt Python
+ - Zach plans to make a tech preview to try prebuilt Python binaries from Github Astro site.
+ - This will allow us to use the latest Python patches without us having to compile new Python versions.
