for 5-3- (Thorsten)

+ hot topics
+ concerns wrt. The new landing page layout for Help
+ happy to improve look & UK (Olivier)
+ if content stays the same, no prblem to improve the look.
+ color palettes
work in progress
+ patches are applied etc.
+ if you’re against renaming the branding colours comment etc.
+ Kudos – to Stephan
+ for making it possible to have Extensions including Color Palettes
+ to be included into 5-3 via a rather small patch
+ copy/paste numbered lists with different behavior as Windows
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92672
+ WFM even better
+ different behaviour here; need dev. Input
+ our behaviour is more consistent (Thorsten)
+ outline numbering is a nightmare (Michael)
+ api change
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104088
.uno:InsertPageNumber / .uno:HeaderAndFooter
+ produces the same dialog.
+ easy hack; on-off for page-numbers ?
+ Bubli said it’s not an easy hack (JanI)
+ API change needs discussing in the ESC (JanI)
+ Change UNO command in impress – to insert-page-number
+ Not sure why the change is needed ? (Cloph)
+ easy to find, easy to locate in the menu; don’t change dialog
itself.
+ UNO commands not visible to users (Kendy)
+ could break scripts etc.
+ don’t care about UNO commands, but the menu.
+ unclear what the user wants (Kendy)
+ he expects a toggle function (Heiko)
=> come up with a clearer proposal.
+ blog post about versioning
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xyndmOMAG2knwKK5lXQMm7pSkdHF7i4rdDYzKI1xemc
(postponed for next week)
+ do other people like ODF versioning inside ODF ? (Michael)
+ unique feature – confusing to users ? (Miklos)
+ confusing, and hard to explain (Bjoern)
+ unclear if it is worth limiting it if its in ODF ? (Thorsten)
+ horror nested revision control issues (Michael)
+ if we publicise it people will use it & find nasty bugs
(Bjoern)
+ lets get the foundation right first.
* Crashtest update (Caolan)
+ 0 import failure, 32 export failures
- erack fixed them, no build in progress
+ 20 coverity.
- no update
* POSS / ODF plugest (Thorsten/Michael)
+ great conference, lovely people, friendly stuff
+ great LibreOffice booth run by local French Community:
+ thanks to all involved with that.
+ the ODF plug-testing UI is interesting (Thorsten)
+ https://beta.opendocumentformat.org/testsets/all/en
AI: + investigate it for test automation (Xisco)
+ doesn’t need deep technical skills.
+ JOS requested a backend server (Michael S)
+ bit of a pain to setup.
* Hackfests (Bjoern)
+ next venues / suggestions
+ 33c3 CfP open (Bjoern):

+ gitdm-config, outstanding: git-committer(0), gitdm-aliases(83),
git-author(254)
+ Developer page, getting outdated, do we want that ?
+ 6 new devs; one updated the page.
+ in absence of guidance from Norbert (Michael)
+ worth keeping the page up-to-date, but not treating it as
authoritative
+ needed by core devs to check people have statements (Miklos)
* GCC -Og (Michael S)
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/31334/
+ discovered this new option supported since 4.8 or so.
+ promised that this should not impact debuggability of code
but still a bit optimized.
+ found a from-scratch build, a tiny-bit slower; 75 vs. 76 minutes.
+ a ‘make check’ incremental runs much faster:
+ 15mins before to 12mins with -Og
+ devs don’t usually re-build from scratch; should be faster in practice.
+ did some debugging yesterday too …
+ it can happen that variables that are no longer live are optimised out
+ otherwise nothing problematic.
+ assume most of the win from calc / templates ? (Michael M)
+ some 30% win there (Michael S)
+ still use explicit options to tell gcc not to inline (Michael S)
+ try removing those ?
+ Googled for it (Jmux)
+ -Og is same as -O1 except for some settings.
=> turn -Og on for a bit and see how it goes.
* Re-organising which rules tests run under (Markus, Michael S, David)
=> punt 1 more week for Markus' return and/or to the list.

* Commit Access
* Developer Certification (Stephan/Bjoern/Kendy/Thorsten)
+ sleeping 2 weeks.
* Jenkins / CI update (Norbert)
* Hardware issues (Michael)
+ Khaled – Windows – hardware on the way to him.
+ Mac -> x5 issue.
+ Swiss Mac – currently idling (Cloph)
+ not sure if we have physical hardware left
* l10n (Sophie)
+ some languages didn’t get updated
+ Christian has triggered a new update today, so the issue should be
solved
+ LibreOffice Online pot update in Pootle?
+ will double check if it is really up-to-date or not (Cloph)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104087
(templates containing non-english strings) – worth fixing? (cloph)
+ will take a look (Sophie)
* Window::dispose() crashers (Michael)
+ had a poke at the top crash reported traces
+ fixed a proximate cause.
+ at some point Armin looked into a shape issue (Caolan)
+ one type of shape carries a lot of resources around with it
see fix in e6adb3e8b4de3c0f78d249b83de19b849ef65b59
+ is the existing bug related to that ?
+ EditEngine – creating a new VirtualDevice
+ why do we create tousands of these during save ?
+ back in the day (Thorsten)
+ serious issue on terminal services: even more limited.
+ AI: add GDI object use count to crash reporter (Michael)
+ may be behind missing bitmaps, black windows etc. (Michael, Thorsen)
+ QA tip: checking GDI handle explosions:
+ 10k GDI handles is the limit:
+

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102688

+ each with three 'idle/timers' for spell-checking etc. (huh?)
