     21= Discussion =
     22* Chimera 1.12 waiting on:
     23  - turning off virus-checking does not solve "cannot rename file" issue, still waiting for info on turning off Windows indexing
     24  - ~~openssl on Linux~~, use ChimeraX approach of adding root certificate file from known system locations
     25  - ~~splash screen problem with PIL fixed
     26  - Put candidate release up now (Greg will handle branching and release notes migration, Conrad will go through svn logs for notable bug fixes)

     28  - RCSB wants us to use https to wwpdb.org to fetch files
     29* Alpha 3
     30  - Sessions: msgpack vs pickle
     31    - Use different extension mechanism to handle tuples/lists instead of overloading map serialization and checking for special  {{{ __type__ }}} key
     32    - Other custom types, e.g., DateTime, will use new extension mechanism as well

     34    - Working on C version for speed

     45    * chains still need work, only selects polymer
     46  - Rescan tickets, in particular, findclash
     47* Beta release topics
     48  - Why do we need a beta so soon?  Why not leave it as alpha?
     49  - Is December a realistic target?
     50  - Will bundles move out from core, e.g., atomic?
     51  - What are the beta APIs?  Toolshed.  Atomic.  Command...
     52  - How much "firming up" API is needed?
     53  - What consists of "the API"?  Public methods, even those without Sphinx documentation?
     54  - Release protocol for "core" bundles?
     55
     56= Action Items =
