I’m doublebooked today so I’ll probably join late.

I’ve updated the extension, you can get it from the Extensions Manager from tomorrow. It contains two new models:

- liver vessels and tumors
- brain CT segmentation (requires commercial license)

### Meeting Notes

#### Telemetry

- **Popup Refinements**

- **Next Steps**

#### Bone Reconstruction Planner

- Added support for multiple lights.
- Implemented Screen-Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO).

#### Slicer Tutorials

- **References**

- **Tutorial Organization**

- **Tutorial Naming Convention**

- **Next Steps**

- **Proposed GitHub Topic**

#### Slicer Reusable GitHub Actions and Workflows

- Following Slicer [PR#7900](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/pull/7900), the GitHub workflow [`commit-message.yml`](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/blob/main/.github/workflows/commit-message.yml) is now re-usable.
- Maintaining this workflow within the `Slicer/Slicer` project prevents Dependabot from effectively tracking updates specific to the pinned workflow, as it instead suggests updates referencing all Slicer changes rather than those specific to the workflow.
- **Next:** Create dedicated Slicer repositories to organize each GitHub reusable workflow or action.

#### Plan for Slicer 5.8 Release

- This topic will be covered in next week’s meeting.

I created this repo

> **[GitHub - EBATINCA/SlicerTutorials: Collection of tutorials for 3D Slicer](https://github.com/EBATINCA/SlicerTutorials)**
>
> Collection of tutorials for 3D Slicer

The intention was to store all tutorials here, but if the decision is to keep them in their own repo (based on “Use one repository per tutorial to facilitate creation, revision control, storage of PDFs, and sample data as release assets”, with reasoning [here](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/pull/7910#discussion_r1742968335)), then I can rename this or re-create the whole thing based on the new guidelines.
