Miklos, Norbert, Thorsten, David, Kendy, Eike, Bubli, Stephan
* Completed Action Items:
+ Akshay Deep - chase mentor wrt. access (Thorsten)
[ account setup, Norbert sorted gerrit out (Kendy) ]
+ encourage GSOC students to public IRC / dev-list posting (Thorsten)
[ all blogs aggregated, and weekly reports to the list ]
* Pending Action Items:
+ investigate a chron job that queries & auto-merges (Norbert)
+ if +2 by author and +1 by jenkins -> auto-push
[ Miklos pointed Norbert at something very similar ]
+ connect to David Ostrovsky to fuse gerrit with vm173 (Olivier)

+ tweak UI and get LiveConnect API key / build case for board (Christian)
+ attempt to re-build a recent gstreamer 1.0 / core spec file
on our CentOS6 base (tdf#94508) (Christian)
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
+ 5.2 Beta update
+ built & published, next week the 2nd beta.
+ 2nd Beta enables the breakpad crash/reporting feature
+ win64 indexing / symbol extraction took a while
+ 10 hours for 64bit vs. 10mins for 32bit.
+ build the extraction utility yourself if you
build the indexer
+ 5.1.4 RC1 update
+ tagged Wed. morning, Mac builds still need up-loading
+ then can announce; all queued patches are in.
+ Android & iOS Remote
+ up-loaded the impress / Android remote to the Play store
+ changed it to a public beta
+ will publish a URL to sign-up for that.
+ if you were a previous tester, you can get it now.
+ building the Android Viewer right now;
+ will test & up-load soon.
* Documentation (Olivier)
+ working on translating the Getting Started manuals
+ continuing to analyse the XML of the help-content
+ was done in 2005; needs improvement.
+ defining new tags to get some improvements for a
richer experience.
+ examples of tags ? (Kendy)
+ want to remove some things.
+ can map 1:1 between several tags & pure HTML (Olivier)
+ can we add SVG graphics, MathML equations, things
that give a better experience for the help user.
+ agreed - lots needs removing.
+ book from Frank Peters with XML definition (Olivier)
+ building a Wiki to describe this too.
+ structure of XML is in the DTD (Kendy)
+ we know all the tags that are there.
+ but good to have a readable description of this
+ useful to have a stripped down version for end-users to edit
(Olivier)
* GSoC 2016 (Thorsten)
+ lots of good things happening, in blogs etc.
+ positive answers: every showed up.
+ deadline next - end of June (23rd?) for mid-term.
+ BZ issue for each GSoC project ? (JanI)
+ Reasons
+ One place to add comments, see Regina mail
How should she report the problems ?
+ GSoC project as the BZ issue get mentioned in release notes
+ Easy to identify a gerrit patch as GSoC
Can't identify them as GSOC
+ Easier to make Blog posts referering BZ
Planning to do a series of blog-posts over the summer.
going through the git logs - is hard; referencing bugs
+ Objections
+ Mentioned in release notes - built into the wiki page.
+ when are bug lists published ? (Michael)
+ when build is announced (Cloph)
+ for minor point releases.
+ not added to main release notes, just to RC release notes.
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/5.1 →
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/5.1.4/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs for
example
+ try to explain to users - 1 bug, has 1 fix (Miklos)
+ concerned wrt. 100 commit issues.
+ issues wrt. identifying GSOC students ?
+ could we have GSOC in the commit summary ? (Eike)
+ a topic in the commit ?
AI: + encourage GSOC students to use GSOC in the commit summary (Thorsten/JanI)
* UX Update (Kendy)
+ not in the call personally; from minutes
+ Heiko identified some easy-hacks that need code-ptrs.
+ if bored, want to provide code-pointers for easy-hackers
+ discussion on GSOC work
+ discussion on new Gallery content & pre-defined shapes.
+ discussion about CMYK color selection (Bubli)
+ the default space to use.
* Crashtest update (Caolan)
+ 73 import failure, 1 export failure, 9 coverity
+ spike on import crashers; needs investigating
* Munich hack-fest update (Bubli)
+ Jmux, Bubli, new LHM hackers, Mike Saunders too.
+ Lots of great food, and mentoring.
+ Orga: https://wiki.debian.org/BSP/2016/05/de/Munich
* Hackfests (Bjoern)
+ next hackfests: nothing confirmed yet.
+ Discussion of a month of LibreOffice contribution in August
+ perhaps not a good time - due to release crunch-mode.
+ Perhaps reach out to other communities:
+ have something LibreOffice themed in that month
+ do some sharing there etc.
+ we'll be buried in release / conference.
+ No Hamburg Home-hacking for a while ...
+ may do something here soon.
+ next venues / suggestions
+ Chaos event - good for outreach; at the same time as Munich.
+ https://www.froscon.de/en/home/Flosscon in Bonn, Germany
+ August - 2 weeks before LibreOffice conference ?
+ perhaps piggy-back on their rooms.
+ like FOSDEM at a university etc.
+ https://2016.guadec.org/ in Karlsruhe, Germany (3 weeks before LO
conf)
+ Akademy / FSFE summit - in the week before LibOCon ? (Thorsten)
+ more suggestions welcome
+ Autumn / week-long Home-Hacking in Hamburg with students? (Bjoern)
+ advertise at university ? C++ training ? etc.
* LibreOffice Conference in Brno - CfP open (Sophie)
+ Kendy & Thorsten on program committee:
+
https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2016/04/08/libreoffice-brno-conference-call-for-paper/

+ create your own by updating Keywords to eg. "easyHack, difficultyBeginner,
skillCpp, topicCleanup"
+ please remember, a codepointer is mandatory, and typically a look from an
experienced developer

+ Adding code pointers, thanks in advance.
* Commit Access
+ cleanup of stale? committers (Norbert)

+ some project revoked after 0.5 years (Miklos)
+ frugalware.
+ do we have any problem with leaving them ? (Stephan)
+ no; but don't want to ever be (Norbert)
+ concern wrt. removing committers (JanI)
+ openhub counts actual commits (Norbert)
+ generate a mail if they arrive (JanI)
+ social aspect concern (Michael)
+ if we can get people active again by poking (Bjoern)
+ can be helpful.
+ otherwise leave open & put a watch on commits (Bjoern)
+ just look at these carefully.
+ and welcome them back.
+ concern wrt. the work, some people move on (Norbert)
+ do we want to keep them open forever.
+ we have a bunch of ex. GSOC never seen again ?
+ silently remove those we think are unlikely to come back
+ concern wrt. creating lots of rules
+ notify removing them.
+ for sure - commit rights to random projects (Kendy)
+ not feel comfortable committing now.
+ if not for three years - through gerrit.
=> leave up to JanI
* Developer Certification (Stephan/Bjoern/Kendy/Thorsten)
+ in the process of assembling a list now (Stephan)

+ load trouble at the moment due to the 5.2 branch
+ patches pushed to both sides giving lots of building work.
+ less than 1 break per day overall.
+ Linux dbgutil seems unhappy.
+ 2 per day on avg. recently.
+ quite a few times where it hung;
+ something with 'db' complex - perhaps a thread affinity bug.
+ backtrace took 2 minutes to run; 70 threads there.
+ would be nice to limit the infra.
+ are they Java threads ? (Michael)
AI: + fix / limit the per-processor thread-pool (Michael)
one break a day keeps contributors at bay....

+ everyone is happy, apparently.
* QA update (Robinson)
