+ do it again soon
+ nice to have more of a focus, and do more outreach
* Exporting redundant symbols for unit tests (Lubos)
+ change reverted re-shrinking symbol tables
+ slower, and 1Gb larger
+ expectation that build-system changes be announced (Moggi)
* rtl / css namespace issues (Lubos/Michael)
+ should we have general 'using' statements ?
+ rtl::OUString is a bit of a pain
+ Lubos:
+ would like to use the short name everywhere,
except for exported headers.
+ add a unit test for all exported headers.
+ Stephan
+ not eager to see it
+ but happy enough to see it go in
+ using css:: namespace instead ?
+ what is this css:: not friendly for new newcomers (Tor)
+ lo:: [!] - annoyances with aliases ...
+ replace css:: with nothing - bad (Stephan)
+ help get ready for lo4
+ prefer to push back to LibO 3.6 and a bigger cleanup (Stephan)
AA: + get headers to allow rtl:: namespace omitted in soon (Lubos)
+ but not do the big seds yet
+ concern wrt. the KDE4 experience & big bang changes (Lubos)
+ ie. fixing API changes now incrementally is a win
+ doing it sooner, not later is good of course (Stephan)
+ LibO 4.0
+ planned to be incrementally developed / migrated anyway
+ postpone until license change done (Bjoern)
+ concerns about breaking all extensions at once (Norbert)
+ better to do incremental improvement ?
+ how much will we get done for this anyway ?
+ consider longer support cycle for LibO 3.6.x etc.
+ discuss late.
* tinderboxen / status (Norbert)
+ bytemark machine #1
+ Fridrich is setting up the fast win32 machine,
aim to get v. fast debugging snapshots
+ bytemark machine #2
+ working on *BSD in virtualbox with little
joy help appreciated (Norbert)
+ need 3x BSD virtual-boxes (ideally)
+ Debian fixing bash-isms left & right due to dash (Lionel)
* misc. font bits
+ Google ChromeOS fonts
+ based on a renamed Liberation + added some additional glyphs
AA: + investigate (Caolan)
+ Ariel Narrow replacement / query
AA: + do we ship Liberation Narrow (Bjoern)
* QA update (Bjoern/Petr)
+ Rainer sends regrets
+ created bibisect screencast to help QA guys.
+ trained people in how to do it at hack-fest
+ now no need for 'EasyHack' prefix for bug subjects in bugzilla anymore
+ MAB re-evaluation is useful but can create more work than fixing the
bugs
+ best to focus on NEEDINFO
+ situation calmed down again
+ what is MAB for ? is it needed at all ? can we use severities
?
+ severities/priorities - user tweakable, and thus not useful.
+ would a bugzilla privilege setting for those help ?
+ discussed at hack-fest, no much better solution available.
+ decision: stick with status-quo for now MAB works quite well.
+ could we sort by # of CC's - a better metric perhaps.
