     24* ChimeraX 1.11 release
     25 - Zach will make the ChimeraX 1.11 release today.
     26
     27* Updates for ChimeraX 1.12
     28 - We will update to PyQt 6.10.1 after holidays.
     29 - Will need to discuss updating numpy 1 to 2, Python 3.11 to 3.x, replacing PyQt with PySide.  These need to be started early in the 6 month release cycle since they are big changes.
     30
     31* Handling python dependency mismatches
     32 - Company user tried to update certifi using pip install in ChimeraX.  That puts it in user area and the distributed version is earlier in search path.
     33 - Could try making ChimeraX python user area earlier in search path than distributed site-packages.  But that may cause ChimeraX to fail.
     34 - Discussed basic Python issue that many packages pin version numbers of dependencies so that will easily cause version mismatches.  And Python does not refuse to install new version when other packages require old version.
     35 - If company licensed users need security updates we should probably handle that on a case-by-case basis.
