+== General ==
+
+== ChimeraX ==
+=== General ===
+
+=== Build System ===
+1) Supporting IDEs
+  - may only need editable installs (will require workaround as namespace packages cannot be installed in this mode automatically)
+  - editable installs should also let us call ChimeraX with Python for rapid iteration and the C launcher for detailed crash info
+  - Zach mentioned PyCharm, LSP (Language Server Protocol), XCode
+  - Greg mentioned Visual Studio 
+
+2) API for getting C headers: get_include (see: numpy.get_include)
+  - {{{native-packaging}}} moves bundle header and source files to {{{bundle/src/include/module}}} \
+  - maybe just use header files?
+
+3) API for getting library directories: get_libdir
+
+4) macOS compiler call in Makefiles
+
+=== Infrastructure ===
+1) Beta releases on Toolshed
+
+2) Decoupling core bundle version number from the ChimeraX release number
+
+3) Prereq audit after 27 June 
+
+4) arm64 port
+
+== Chimera ==
+1) Back up the build machine to a solid state drive
