--------------------------
= Discussion =

* !Nvidia/Intel dual graphics problem
 - Greg answering mailing list report of problem starting chimerax on dual nvidia/intel "prime" graphics.

* Web site accessibility
 - Greg working on resolving some color contrast issues.
 - Tom says 49 chimera tutorial videos with audio should be hidden since we don't currently plan to caption or put on youtube.
 - There are 25 animation videos (5 seconds, no audio) that are fully described in the text.  Greg should submit review requests, since no change should be needed.
 - Probably about 15 other short chimerax and chimera animations without audio also described by text need review request.
 - Scooter is working on captioning historical videos (probably fewer than 10).

* ChimeraX Trac database down today
 - Greg will restart mariadb to get Trac working.
 - First he shutsdown Toolshed to avoid error email. Then restart mariadb with pcs restart.
 - Usually that is sufficient to get Trac to work, although sometimes it requires a database restore.
 - Database is saved every night.  Also if restore is needed, first try dumping current database.
 - Same mariadb instance used by Toolshed and Trac.  Heavy toolshed update queries may be related to Trac breaking.

* Wynton decommissioning meeting
 - Greg had to leave for 3:30 Wynton decommissioning meeting.
