        + released, and going well.
        + Bjoern re-introduced mergelibs for 4.3.2
            + enabled for 4.3.1 without a patch, we need
              other libs in mergelibs to avoid circular deps.
            + some interesting bug reports wrt. dbtools moving
              into mergelibs etc.
            + anyone interested in investigating ?
            + mergelibs works nicely from 4.0.x -> 4.2.x
                startup time is visibily faster with it.
                compressed pkg is 1Mb smaller too ...
            + bug is:
                # https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84315

    + a run during the conference, detected some writerfilter issues, now mostly fixed.
    + bug around the conference
         + took crashers to 200, Miklos fixed it to 2000 instead
             + but now back to normal
             + RTF: zero crashers & low for docx / doc.

        + jmux (IRC) can add you if you don't want to create an account
        + will have a BSP come-together; if someone says they're coming
          just show up etc.
           + November 21st-23rd, 2014
           https://wiki.debian.org/BSP/2014/11/de/Munich
           + we should drop by with 2 or 3 developers, if possible
    + Be great to have -really- easy easy hacks for devs (Bjoern)
 
* UX Update (Kendy)
    + asked for Sifr icon sources - sent to red-mine, apparently using it
        want to make icon generation more predictable, avoiding black-magic
        working on this with Mirek & sensibly ordered Inkscape sheet.
    + use of redmine discussion - issues / benefits (Bjoern)
        + Mirek won't be able to make the ESC call; so in absentia ...
        + Florian doesn't want the use of the redmine wiki - not backed up etc.
        + prefer a single tool used
        + how is redmine used for QA ? (Robinson)
            + specific admin pieces tracked in there.
            + happy to use bugzilla for that purpose
            + might already fit in the existing infra in Redmine ? (Bjoern)
                + could we merge those & close the project ?
AI:             + move the data across to infra / bugzilla (Bjoern)
                + easy to do now - only 10x tasks or so.
            + sometimes there is infra not maintained by infra team (Robinson)
        + otherwise happy enough with UX guys in Redmine.
 
* QA (Robinson)
  + un-confirmed bug count holding just above 900
    + Robinson distracted by releng while Cloph on vacation
    + rallying the troops on IRC
    + unconfirmed state at same point in last cycle similar (Bjoern)
  + otherwise mostly quiet.
