      21 Killed by the kill-wrapper                gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
    + this week was a normal week, let's say
    + some improvements to the build stats
      + Windows / macOS is the bottleneck
    + no cluster of tests that fails specifically, that's good

   + kill-wrapper for macOS? (Stephan)
     + have lode patches available, could push them, but:
         + location of kill-wrapper executable changes also for Linux, Jenkins needs
           to adapt
         + prints way less information on macOS than on Linux
           + but at least prints which processes are still running
     + gerrit change: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/lode/+/143788 "Extend kill-wrapper to also run on macOS"
       + AI: review & submit this when happy with the result (Cloph)

   + Hackfest after FOSDEM: on 6 & 7th Feb at ICAB (Xisco)
   + If you are attending, add yourself to https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Events/2023/FOSDEM

       + limited spots available

     + Deadline for submitting the pre-recorded talks

       + Sunday 29th January 2023


* LibreOffice hackfest in Cambridge (Miklos)
   + as part of COOL days: 28 & 29th March 2023

   + Budget document is ready, will email a Nextcloud link to ESC members (Ilmari)
   + Deadline will be specified in the email (for voting)

* What’s cooking (Miklos)

* Update Android min NDK version to 23.x? (Michael W.)
     + and switch Jenkins e.g. to e.g. NDK 23.2.8568313
     + https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2023-January/089871.html
     + gerrit change: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/146118
AI: install newer NDK on Jenkins (Cloph)
     + do we publish any daily builds for Android? (Hossein)
       + we just disabled them when they were not published on the app store
     + NDK 25 will be the next LTS version? (Cloph)
       + would suggest going to 25 directly
       + 24 removed support for API level 16,17, & 18, i.e. minimum supported version would be KitKat / 19
     + updated an fdroid version recently (Michael W)
       + https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/12380
     + please update /README.md accordingly (Miklos)
       + will do (Michael W)

* Dead code removal (Stephan)
     + See recent mailing list thread:
         + AIX (incl. its Linux 32-bit PowerPC C++ UNO bridge)
         + 32-bit s390 (incl. its Linux C++ UNO bridge)
         + Solaris 32-bit x86 and SPARC C++ UNO bridges
             + but leave Solaris support available for OpenIndiana downstream
   => no objections (all)
