- Timeline for fix? No.
- Ideas for a fix on jwe's private dev repo (link?)

- Nobody knows the cause of these random, non-reproducible crashes.
Referencing packages
- Image package now uploaded to Zenodo, linked with OrcID
- How to probably credit authors / contributors.
Development image
- Would there be value to a development VM or other type of image to provide a standard environment?
- currently a Docker exists with the latest build for usage/testing
- if a VM, what is the minimal sized setup to make it useful/effective
- Could instructions on the Wiki provide this purpose?
- See Building on Microsoft Windows.
- WSL and instructions might provide a development path for MS Windows users.
- If instructions are enough, would instructions for a user to get and setup a VM or WSL enough to remove need to host a VM?
Ideas for next meeting
