- We will migrate to GitHub without the use of git tools like subrepo as a first step. Brian will introduce a fresh copy of ST and GR.
- Joanne will test introducing the --rpath flag in the SCons builds.
- At Jim's request, Heather will contact Johan about his needs for ST installations and development.
- Giacomo and Alex will pursue using condo-forge for their conda builds.
- Giacomo and Alex will contact the maintainers of the current condo-forge cfitsio channel.

Discussed potential time limit issues with building ST via Travis-CI. Without externals, Joe A estimates it takes ~30 takes 30 minutes which is under the Travis time limit (~40min?)
Mention of Travis led to a discussion of Mac OS support. Questions swirled about how to support Mac developers. Eric notes that he has all but given up on Mac support. Jeremy wondered if one could use the condo-build mechanism to support development on the Mac. It sounds like the build.sh could be reused locally, with tweaks to remove the installation step. Matt suggests introducing additional compiler versions in the CI may help identify many of the problems discovered in the Mac builds by the FSSC before releases are made by the LAT. Jim suggests adding clang as one of the options in the CI.
Alex and Giacomo ran off to work on support Mac in the condo-builds.
