+ tests that failed more than twice in last seven days:
3 CppunitTest_sw_uiwriter gerrit_windows
3 CppunitTest_sw_uwriter gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
3 CppunitTest_xmlsecurity_signing gerrit_windows
5 CppunitTest_sd_export_ooxml2 gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
61 Killed by the kill-wrapper gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
+ much less Windows problems
+ there was a clash: UITest vs code change at the same time, both verified by Jenkins on its own
+ Some asserts in UItests don’t fail, abort instead ( Xisco )
- https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/103993
+ AI: will take a look later (Stephan)
+ Android has now 2 workers
+ problem with running out of disk space, twice, now fixed
+ already caught real problems pre-commit
* l10n (Sophie)
+ working is ongoing
* Graphics architecture (Thorsten)
* https://pad.documentfoundation.org/p/ESC_graphics_architecture
* skia / vulkan metabug: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129062
+ 16 (-1) open bugs, 124 total (+0)
* LibreOffice Conference will be Online (Sophie)
+ some people wondered if it is possible to pre-record the talk?
- possible, but not a requirement
+ need to decide how to handle the next week, “during” the conference (Miklos)
+ works for me (Cloph)
+ usual time slot, but unusual agenda (Thorsten)
+ taking questions from the audience
+ share plans / what’s cooking section / longer-term directions
* Decide on what to do with the translation/gerrit of online.git (Thorsten)
+ 1 patch from non-Collabora, should be merged at some stage
+ would not be fair to leave online.git open but nobody really care
+ to not disappoint contributors
+ other proposal: github mirror, mirrors gerrit, could mirror CollaboraOnline’s online repo
+ to be discussed, no decision is needed right now
+ Andras ensures that no translation work will be lost (Miklos)
+ ESC is the right place to discuss development & translation (Thorsten)
+ prefer that it’s discussed here and not in the board
+ will TDF continue the development of LOOL? (Heiko)
+ right now there is no parallel development in gerrit (Thorsten)
+ who wants to continue LOOL? (Heiko)
+ need to discuss that, in public (Thorsten)
+ having opinion is free, but doers should decide
+ can’t say “TDF should do this&that” but then nobody doing anything
+ for the moment, on the table, needs more discussion, also perhaps next week
+ personal take: hate pointless forking
* QA update (Xisco)

+ Vasily?
+ original commit intention is not clear (Xisco)
+ don’t know what would be the consequence of a revert
