       + zarro
       + is that because Xisco hands them to you normally ? (Michael)
           + probably – he’s on vacation (Heiko)

         + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123831
         + Moz changes API continuously – want themes of our own etc.
       => remove & ideally switch to new extensions

* Crash Testing (Caolan)
    + 7(+6) import failure, 2(-2) export failures
      - mst has additional fixes which will probably fix the last of the
        red-lines in next build
      – but new asserts/crashes have emerged
        - interesting new asserts ? Or what triggers them ?  
    + coverity issues
      - coverity is back up
      - but we now need c++17, which isn’t working yet
      - asked coverity, and “new version will be deployed in the coming few
        months”        
    + Google / ossfuzz:
      - 11 (+3) issues, 9 timeouts, 1 OOM
      + found other one – but not really serious.
    + ForcePoint, round 9
        + still some issues outstanding
        – layout issues with additional asserts in ordinary docs.
        - unclear if this is the original reason, or something new.
    + CNA process
        + positive progress.

* Crash Reporting (Heiko)
  + http://crashreport.libreoffice.org/stats/version/6.1.3.2
    + 905 (-134)

    + 719 (+275)
  + http://crashreport.libreoffice.org/stats/version/6.2.0.3
    + 2532 (+718)
  + lots more issues on fresh:
    + Hike in the download numbers recently
    + not entirely clear where it comes from; nothing interesting.
    + mostly from Spain, .cz, Poland, distributed etc.
    + people are using LibreOffice more often it seems → crash rate.

* Hackfests & Events (Thorsten)
   + this year hackfests coming up:
	+ Tirana perhaps
          + April 25th April 28th → Easter variously.
          + May 4th / 5th  → conflict with German meetings
          + https://forum.openlabs.cc/t/libreoffice-hackfest-tirana-2019/1658
          + poke Bjoern / Eike / Xisco to chase / decide…
	+ Paris in Summer
          + first week of July Fri/Sat 5th / 6th
	    + near Gare de Nord, La Mouette working on communication
          + designing a flier – avoids stomping on exams at end of June
	+ tentative Dresden: late autumn (past mid-October, for having students)
   + hope to have one each quarter.

* GSOC 2019 (Thorsten)
   + further ideas list cleanups ongoing
   + list of un-mentored ideas – please consider signing up ...
   + looking at the ideas list: we can do better …
   + getting more interesting bits there would be helpful
      + need more ideas from UX (Heiko)
   + a few weeks to go though.
   + next deadline: March 25 student application period starts   	
   + please also have a look on the (updated) list of unmentored ideas
