* Release Engineering update (Petr)
+ 3.6.0 RC4
+ annoying bug: comments lots during .xls / .xlsx export
+ not good, but probably not a blocker
+ autocorrection & dictionaries internal / user-installation
extensions not had their versions bumped => not
working (Stephan)
+ actively registered / lightproof uno extensions also
have some update issues - have a fix as well (Stephan)
+ grammar-checker impairment
+ workaround - manually remove bundled extensions directory
+ locating it on windows is a pain.
+ registering bundled extn's
+ slowest bit is help registration
- hence version check.
+ decision: ship it now
+ release note it carefully
+ 3.6.1 RC1 is due in 2 weeks
+ all above issues fixed
+ 3.5.6 RC1 status
+ built except for Win32, start up-loading later today
+ RC2 deadline is on Monday - tripple review for -3-5-6
+ Automatic update / suggesions policy
+ we can choose which versions update to what versions (Kendy)
+ perfectly possibly to recommend 3.5.0 -> 3.6.0 but
avoid 3.5.1+ -> 3.6.0
+ no user configuration for enthusiasm for updates ? (Norbert)
+ only enable / disable
+ re-visit update to 3.6.1 from 3.5.0
+ perennial updating / first-start user-experience issues
+ re-thinking the complicated optimisations here
sounds like a good plan.
* GSOC update (Cedric)
+ ongoing work - pencils down / evaluations by August 20th
* 4.0 - ongoing discussion (Kendy)
+ thanks to those who assigned themselves some tasks
+ should we start now or post-re-basing ?
+ http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/LibreOffice4
+ can we do the less incompatible changes first (Bjoern)
+ deadline - of next week for volunteers for tasks
+ proposal - call next version 4.0, pending wider input.
+ whole point of 4.0 - if incompatible (Michael S)
+ will keep people on last 3.x release for longer
so need to support it for longer
+ always true even if we do 3.7 (Norbert)
+ concerns wrt. longer term support of re-based code
+ if we retain good back-compat / bridging much
less of an issue (Michael)
+ start working, and testing breakage (Stephan)
+ start doing it & see if it works or breaks
+ unclear proposal / need an updated release plan (Bjoern)
+ wide-spread code changed blocked anyway on re-basing (Lubos)
+ discussion ongoing with 3.6.x fixing
+ could we have a re-based 4.0 with no ABI break (Stephan)
+ announce intention to break things (Bjoern)
+ potential to incremental numbering eg. 4 -> 5 -> 6 for
next releases (Stephan)
+ extend deadline until next week for task selection in wiki
+ please take ownership of tasks
+ and/or consider what can be done without
breaking binary compatibility.

+ CTL discussion still under consideration
