+ add `make screenshot´ to gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil (Stephan)
* Pending Action Items:
+ Pranam, send the new-committer mail (Kendy)
+ fix Jenkins_Callgrind at some stage (Cloph)
[ must be an env var mismatch, custom LD_LIBRARY_PATH causes problems ]
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
+ 7.0 status: libreoffice-7-0 branch-off & feature freeze in 2 weeks
+ UI freeze & string freeze after that
+ any late feature proposals? (Miklos)

* Java baseline update, to version 9 (Thorsten)
+ benefits (Michael S)
+ will be able to build some java module (not possible with java 8)
+ target version for the java bytecode is still 8, just the module part would be 9
+ then extensions can use this “module”, not 4 jar files

+ Thanks to Luboš
+ New high severity bugs of the week:
+ Enabling 'follow text flow' causes shape to not render
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113373
+ Michael S?

+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128437

+ 'performance problem with plenty comments' still in 6.3 alpha1, *only after save of file/autosave*
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125619
+ Armin?
+ the problem is that (a) as soon as we display a note it becomes an SdrObject and stays an SdrObject until Calc closes (b) when we save, we create an SdrObject for every note during the save process (Noel)
+ tons of SdrObjects interact badly with the accessibility stuff in calc, and it becomes a huge slowdown. I've optimized the accessibility stuff as much as possible, but we have run out of easy/medium fixes
+ even if we throw away things after a timeout, it won’t help much (Eike)
+ calc using scenarios crash after 5 minutes away
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127957
+ not a regression
+ Catalina: Can't open attachments in Mail due to Lock File issues (full disk access workaround)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128526
+ Tor will take a look
+ Cannot change data point icons in Calc's XY or points and lines chart
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131333
+ regression, not bisected
+ FILEOPEN Old base file (*.dbf) created in LO fails to open in 6.4.2.2
