+ Android & iOS Remote
+ 4x CVEs release today (Bjoern)
+ people should be aware:
http://www.libreoffice.org/about-us/security/advisories/
+ Caolan updated the page, but needs crediting for the fixes.
* Introduction (Armin)
+ formerly Armin Weiss,
+ working on the code-base for ~15 yrs, from StarDivision, with Marco.
+ formerly at IBM, now at CIB.
+ working on LibreOffice immediately, starting now.
+ currently getting used to new stuff; gerrit, new builds etc.
+ warming up the fingers.
+ commit access for him? (Bubli)
=> adding him (Norbert) Done.
+ pushing to gerrit gives a free-build on all platforms in 30-40mins
(Norbert)
+ it's awesome (Armin)
+ if have a patch, want to test, but don't want it to go through:
+ put a -1 self review on it; it helps.
+ also can use a +2 to avoid others reviewing things (Bjoern)
+ or makes people think you forgot to press the button (Kendy)
* Widow / Orphan controls on by default (Justin)
"I would like to request that someone give official endorsement
to turning on widow/orphan controls by default for new
documents. I expect this probably fits ESC better than UI
group.
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89714";
+ replied on the list, pretty old feature & stable (Miklos)
+ just a UX decision if it should be on/off.
+ not entirely UX (Bubli)
+ changes ODF export around styles (are they default styles)
+ from the bug report (JMux)
+ default value currently not saved in the doc.
+ all old documents without this would get it on load.
+ he intends that only new docs get it (Lionel)
+ Can we store this 'on/off' setting for Microsoft docs ? (Michael S)
+ by default on since MS Word 2003 - so improves interop (Lionel)
+ all for it in general; no opinion on implementation.
+ not necessary for UX to discuss it (Kendy)
=> as long as it doesn't break old docs - happy for it to go in
with the new more interoperable default.
* Documentation (Kendy/Olivier)
+ someone working on online modification of help-files
+ Jay to encourage him to push that publicly.
+ in a while will need a VM from infra to test this.
+ more changes in help-authoring:
+ better image handling; new version needs releasing soon.
+ in the last week:
+ added nice new help pages from Lera Goncharuk (tagezi)
+ interested in cleaning trash from the help files too.
+ which may help translators too - avoiding redundant work.
+ Jay is updating the help for the menus & the authoring ext'n.
+ Regina & Eike did some work at the hackfest tool.
* UX Update (Kendy)
+ new icons 32pix vers of tango & Sifr as well.
+ code to enable 32pix icons coming soon.
+ need a switch in tools->options to enable them.
+ this Friday:
+ design session building ideas around NotebookBar.
+ ideally when Samuel is back
+ won't be (Bubli, Thorsten)
+ won't be only 1x session.
+ increased interest in new user statistics
+ hackers to improve POC appreciated.
+ impress slide transition selection bits (Michael)
+ hoping to re-use gallery code to have bigger thumbnails.
+ help appreciated creating pretty & larger icons there.
+ traditionally not part of the freeze anyway (Kendy)
+ best to get size nailed down 1st (Michael)
* Import pages from old OOo wiki into TDF wiki (Bubli)
+ lots of useful documentation living there (framework, SfxItem* etc.)
+ that doesn't exist anywhere else
+ can we do that? (licensing etc.)
+ DennisRoczek volunteered to take over the technical side of things
+ import pages including history
+ shortlist of pages to import (?)
+ there are backups of the AOO wiki - so no urgency (Michael)
+ Access2Base - should move across (Olivier)
+ no IP concern at all - as he wrote it himself (Michael)
+ fairly sure of that (Lionel)
+ written in some specific wiki software, lots of js
+ will that markup migrate easily -> MediaWiki ?
+ IP concerns about other wiki content (Michael)
+ wondered what other pages would be sensible (Bjoern)
+ the writer core documentation
+ a number of README's link AOO wiki pages.
+ if a shortlist needed, grep in the READMEs
+ the developer-guide also in the wiki (Michael S)
+ api.libreoffice.org links to it (Lionel)
see e.g.
http://api.libreoffice.org/docs/idl/ref/servicecom_1_1sun_1_1star_1_1frame_1_1Frame.html#details
+ PDL licensed - so less of a concern (Thorsten)
AI: + find someone who wants to quietly review both sets of licensing &
compare (Robinson)
+ more ideally, create new, clean content on our wiki (Bjoern)
+ if the content is created by volunteers - no issue (Robinson)
+ if necessary can run a 'zoo' wiki of our own (Michael)
+ writer's core documentation linked to a place it can't be edited
(Bjoern)
AI: + have a call to oversee license issues from Robinson (Thorsten,
Michael etc.)
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org_Wiki:Copyrights
* Make TDF infrastructure configuration public (DavidO)
+ wants to see salt, etc.
+ request seems sensible (Bjoern)
+ some things we do hit the wall, unclear where repositories are.
+ agreed (Thorsten)
=> suggest this belongs to the sysadmin team (Thorsten)
+ if sysadmin team is unwilling escallate to board etc.
* Crashtest update (Caolán on vacation)
+ 0 import failures, 0 export failures, 373 coverity issues
+ numbers back to zero again after a bump.
+ asan+ubsan crashtest run
+ some results, a tragic accident deleted all the logs however, so new
run needed
+ lots of duplication there.
+ event testing - found & fixed another issue - ongoing.
* Hackfests (Bjoern)
+ GNOME hack-fest in Madrid
+ asked for board funding
+ Norbert, Thorsten, Michael, Bjoern -> fine in principle.
+ Bubli, Bjoern, JanI, Xisco ?
+ room is booked, it is happening: Dec 2nd ->4th in Madrid.
+ will create a wiki page of our own.
+ FOSDEM / Beta Co-working (Bjoern)
+ we're welcome, but shoudl promote them.
AI: + setup wiki page with dates (Bjoern)
AI: + can we book a conference room for a board meeting (Florian/Bjoern?)
+ LiMux hackfest end of November (Jan-Marek)
+ "Same procedure as every year" (almost)
+ Yup - we're late to the show
+ Please add yourself and vote for your preferered weekend
https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/LiMux_Hackfest_2015/
+ if 1x more person signs up - we'll do a hack-fest.
+ Just saw that there are already 10 people (Jan-Marek)
+ good opportunity to meet Debian / Kubuntu people (Bjoern)
+ Will announce official weekend on Friday
+ next venues / suggestions
+ considering another Gran Canaria hack-fest (Thorsten)
+ March next year (?)
* l10n Update (Sophie)
+ nothing problematic happening.
* Developer Certification (Stephan/Bjoern/Kendy/Thorsten)
+ pending another 6 weeks.
+ who updates the certification page ? (Italo)
+ problems remembering the pwd (Kendy, Stephan)
+ newly appointed: Mihai Varga, Oliver Specht, Philippe Jung
+ congratulations etc. Italo to send out certificates.
AI: + update the page (Sophie)
* Checking for DSO dependencies (Michael S)
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/RegressionIdeas#Checking_for_DSO_dependencies_.28Robert_Antoni_Buj_i_Gelonch.29
+ collecting some ideas a while back.
+ board decision on budget proposal mail.
http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/msg03724.html
+ this guy not funded.
+ rather a trivial idea - script to check DSO dependencies are the ones we
expect.
+ not some librtmp foo - that broke the bibisect repo.
AI: + look into writing such a script (Stephan)
* Jenkins / CI update (Norbert)

+ reasonable week; weird linux dbg result, but overall good.
+ 2x new Linux boxes on-line with good results
+ cold-build is 20 mins; hot is less.
+ moved ubisan to one of these boxes
+ should be possible to tweak config in distro-config
+ distro-config/jenkins
+ so jobs get config from there to adapt as needed.
+ be careful; don't break jenkins.
+ so far just for ubisan, moving all CI slaves to this.
+ build running 'make check' to find nasties sooner.
+ runs / reported on the tinderbox website:
+ is the distro-config stuff a script that runs jenkins ? (Bjoern)
+ not a script, just configure options
+ all scripting is part of lode.git
* Remove yet another check from the ZIP reader (Jan-Marek)
+ Actually almost the last local file header one. Breaks WollMux extension
build by our new maven toolchain.
+ didn't accept ZIP files.
+ Probably adapting checks 7zip is doing in CPP/7zip/Archive/Zip/ZipIn.cpp
/ AreItemsEqual
+ history of the LO file commits is endlessly removing checks.
+ See https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/19779/
+ if we don't crash - why validate so much ? (Michael)
+ not interested in warning on invalid ZIPs
+ bit of a risk of really corrupted ZIP archives (Thorsten)
+ 10x years of relaxing constraints - lets keep going.
AI: + Will push the patch (Jan-Marek)
* Easy Hacks:
+ new easy-hacks thanks to:
+ http://bit.ly/1KR4HWX
+ create your own by setting whiteboard to eg.
"easyHack difficultyBeginner skillCpp topicCleanup"
+ create new easy hacks from these proposed ones
(or remove the whiteboard keyword "needsDevEval" if not feasible):
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/buglist.cgi?status_whiteboard=needsDevEval
* Why do we have 2x svg things ? (Caolan)
+ punt to the next call and/or keep it on the list.
* QA update (Robinson)
+ UNCONFIRMED at 539 + 21 bugs in UX-advise
+ Bump during BugHunting Session
+ needAdvice at 16
+ BugHunting Session for 5.1 retrospective
+ Over 100 bugs filed during the weekend (incl. couple crashers)
+ Rather quiet in IRC -> more chatter can be welcoming
+ Next BugHunting Session is first week of December; increased
recruitment:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugHunting_Session_5.1.0_Beta
+ Most Pressing Bugs:
http://ur1.ca/nkp0t
+ tdf#95573 - EXTENSION MANAGER - freeze / hang when attempting to
install extensions on OSX 10.11...
+ tdf#95584 - Text with background color set not rendered correctly in
presentation and exported PDF file
+ bg color disappears
+ not a regression, an unimplemented feature (Bubli)
+ part is a duplicate of an already reported issue (tdf#93789)
AI: + Add a new 5.1 category for high-prio. bugs (Robinson)
* QA stats
