    + tests that failed more than twice in last seven days
       3 Killed by the kill-wrapper                gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
       3 CppunitTest_sc_uicalc                gerrit_windows

       8 CppunitTest_sw_uiwriter6                gerrit_windows
          - this is testRedlineAutoCorrect2 which is very odd to me
      10 UITest_impress_tests2                gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
      21 UITest_inputLine                gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
    + UITest_inputLine seems to have started with mythes bump
      https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/138636
      https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/138708 is likely fixing it already
   + this week: back to normal (Cloph)
     + 2 more macs: no longer a bottleneck
     + UITest_inputLine failed a lot, perhaps due to the mythes bump, possibly Caolan already fixed it
       - I think https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/138065 was the start
       - https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/138708 seemed to fix it
   + do you use ccache for Windows? (Hossein)
     + no, only pch (Cloph)
     + pretty sure it worked at one point, but performance wasn't that good (Lubos)
       + if memory serves correctly, didn't help at all for Thorsten
       + Windows IO (under cygwin) is slow, so ccache doesn't help
       + the mean time for the gerrit clang debug build (including uichecks) is the same as the windows build, so not much point in improving it (Cloph)
         + goal is to have the full set in <90 mins and we currently met it
       + ccache helps or not depends on # of CPU cores / IO bandwidth (Thorsten)

* What’s cooking (Miklos)
   + working on minimal crop support for media shapes / videos, from PPTX (Miklos)
   + Currently ongoing conference (Ilmari)
     + https://latam.conference.libreoffice.org/, Olivier & Xisco are there
