          • Chris: Will opened some OMERO.web PRs (download, show infrastructure, etc.) Include in 5.0.4?
            • Jean-Marie: probably will merge only critical ones, also other PRs that are ready to go
          • Jean-Marie: everything for 5.0.4 must be merged by Friday, or maybe Monday so Josh M and Petr can check

      2. 5.1.0

        • Jean-Marie: moving along nicely, web work to align preview
          • Mark: been building permissions checking into graph traversal implementation, seems to be going okay
        • Roger: creating a presentation to give C++ background so that we can better review PRs: CI jobs, build environment, etc.
