### Meeting Notes

#### Dynamic Modeler

- **[geogram](https://github.com/BrunoLevy/geogram)** does not seem to perform as well as **[vtkbool](https://github.com/zippy84/vtkbool)** in certain scenarios.
- Proposed conducting a **performance comparison with test cases** to:
  - Provide concrete benchmarks.
  - Initiate discussions on potential improvements.
  - Identify areas for follow-up issues in **geogram** and **VTK**.

#### Declaring Requirements & Constraints in Scripted Modules

- Allows **scripted modules** to **declare requirements and constraints** while enforcing **Slicer Core constraints**.
- Reviewed and discussed [PR #8181](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/pull/8181).

#### Multi-Layer Support

- Reviewed and discussed the proposed **multi-layer support** implementation.
- Related work: [PR #8210](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/pull/8210).
