I have another meeting I need to attend at 10 tomorrow, but if people are still around at 11 I’d like to hear about where we are with the release and the Qt6 infrastructure.

## Meeting Notes

### Handling Build Issues Related to Dependencies

- When facing errors related to dependencies, it’s generally more effective to perform a **clean build**.
- If preserving existing source trees is desired, it’s acceptable to remove only the directories associated with dependencies to reset their build state.

### Telemetry

**Planned Improvements:**

- Display **event names** across all components simultaneously.
- Introduce a **tool to selectively delete statistics**.
- Add **year labels** to the time range selector, or provide explicit **start and end date selection**.
- Follow up on **official telemetry web service hosting** – action item assigned to @jcfr.

### Support for Light Box

- While reviewing [PR-8773](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/pull/8773) – _“ENH: Add vtkMRMLScriptedLightBoxRendererManagerProxy”_ – the team decided to **remove support for Light Box** in Slicer.

- As described in [Issue #4749](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/issues/4749) (_“Replace dynamic lightbox views with static image generation”_), the feature:

- Moving forward, static image generation will be favored over dynamic Light Box rendering.
