* Pending Action Items:
+ Enable firebird as non-experimental for macOS app store builds (Cloph)
+ see if there are 3 devs with non-trivial commits at
<https://github.com/freeonlineoffice/online> (Xisco)
+ hopefully next week
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
+ 7.4 status: 7.4.2 rc3 has been released as final today
+ 7.3 status: 7.3.7 rc1 was tagged earlier today
+ Appstores
+ version with locally installed fonts into the MS app store
+ not searchable, but can be made public
* Documentation (Olivier)
+ Helpcontents2
+ updates and fixes (ohallot, erack)
+ new languages HSB and DSB (ohallot)
+ Q: Shall we keep screenshots in Help pages?
+ automatic screenshooting ("make screenshots") broken
+ manual screeshooting too cumbersome, wrt release updates
+ user survey?
+ remove?
+ worth fixing the screenshot generation again (Cloph)
+ would also help weblate / translators
+ is there a bugreport? (Miklos)
+ there is, need to search for it (Olivier)
+ presumably can be bisected
+ does it build or fails at runtime? (Xisco)
+ it builds, then doesn't work (Olivier)
+ doesn't work if the dialog needs data from the document
+ will try to bisect it (Xisco)
+ we're told it used to work (Caolan)
+ would be useful to know what exactly worked and what broke
(Miklos)
+ would love a specific list of steps for what regressed (Xisco)
AI: provide this (Olivier)
+ don't want dialogs that's empty (Olivier)

+ not so good week for Windows (Cloph)
+ some of them bot related
+ not sure what is exactly ongoing
+ problems with 2 Macs
+ general remark (Thorsten)
+ would it be worth stepping back a bit and trying to kind of fix the
symptoms rather than the cause?
+ regular Windows / macOS problems
+ brainstorm: how could we run this differently?
+ e.g. clone a VM every single time for each build
+ if happens only 1 time out of 100 times, keep a copy for investigation
+ don't dislike the idea (Cloph)
+ most Windows machines are already virtualized
+ multiple VMs is more complex than just a few VMs for Windows
+ less concerned about Macs
+ cygwin is also another source of problems for Windows
+ dialog leakage when these pop-up on the screen
+ a fresh VM would solve this, but a setup time would increase
+ next year plan: replace Windows Server with Windows 11, because server
will be EOL
+ could use virtualization features more
+ could use VM check-pointing (Hossein)
+ great improvement would be to use WSL instead of cygwin (Cloph)
+ but that's far from trivial
+ libvirt is kind of nice to manage one-shot VMs (Thorsten)
+ another idea: try to build once more and only report an error if it
happens two times in a row
+ best to sort out at infra level first (Cloph)
+ would be interested in that specific infra call (Thorsten)
* What’s cooking (Miklos)
+ Writer content controls, PDF export work is still in progress (Miklos)
+ Manipulate table style editing in Impress (Maxim)
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/140943
+ there is no real table style editing UI in Impress, adding UI for that now
+ WASM Calc support to land soonish
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/137946 (Thorsten)
+ still a PoC, but confident this will land soon
* BoD asks whether we can re-evaluate LOOL atticisation (Stephan/Xisco)
+ pending Xisco's action item
* LHM intends to ask TDF to host WollMux code (and associated libs) - any view
the ESC
has on this? (Thorsten)
* non-archived bits from https://github.com/orgs/WollMux/repositories
* homepage (needs l10n): https://wollmux.org/
* (wiki & homepage were in the past already hosted by FrODeV, then TDF)
+ any opinion on this?
+ is it just to change the github org from them to TDF or move to TDF
infra? (Caolan)
+ issues/bug reports are currently only on github (Thorsten)
+ ODF toolkit is already there, just on github/tdf -> so there's precedent
+ proposal would be to stay on github, to be the least disruptive
+ transfer the repo, to have redirects working
+ how much activity do you expect in this repo? (Kendy)
+ not much, mature project (Thorsten)
+ lots of initial activity in 2007, then more when moving to UNO
widgets + sidebar
+ now rather just bugfixes
+ right now quite German centric, but that could be changed
+ same for documentation
+ easier to pull in external people if it's inside TDF, not Munich
+ allotropia interest to keep it alive
+ interesting part: very powerful show case
+ if wollmux is working, Writer passed the test, for uno API stuff ;)
+ sounds great
+ could marketing came up with a new name? (Michael M)
+ eg. "LibreOffice Government Forms" vs. Wollmux =)
+ would not be the first thing to change, but agree (Thorsten)
+ how awful is that Java? (Michael)
+ Java extensions are a great thing to have (Thorsten)
+ we already have that, can call UNO from there.
+ not against it
