8 Killed by the kill-wrapper gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
+ not too bad week, really
+ still couple of builds killed by the kill-wrapper
+ DNS outage on Tuesday, and one Mac broke
+ Might try to tweak a Windows bot to avoid 2 parallel builds
* l10n (Sophie)
+ online/HTML Help 7.3 updated (likely final for 7.3.0) (Olivier)
+ will update master project after 7.3.0 is tagged/done (Cloph)
* FOSDEM 2022 (Italo)
+ next weekend!
+ lightning talk slot can happen (Thorsten)
+ if you have something cool to show, then send a video link to Thorsten
* Remove Beanshell and Rhino (Ilmari)
+ After the discussion on the list I support the removals (Ilmari)
+ Deprecation can be announced in 7.3 release notes
+ Would be nice to have a more modern JS engine, but Michael S mentions our JS environment is very Java-specific
+ don't assume that wasm solves a problem in this context (Thorsten)
+ it's just one more runtime
+ if you're an extension developer, there is no real benefit
+ but it's a nice hack!
+ would be good to have an overview idea: what we exactly want beyond basic macros (Thorsten)
+ to avoid removing all automation features bit by bit
+ beanshell is useful to protype Java code
+ Rhino would be nice to have still, for those who want to use it (Michael S)
+ once it's an extension, it requires almost no maintenance
+ isn't there a danger there that we still have to fix it if it breaks? (Miklos)
+ not concerned that we'll break it if we don't break the API (Michael S)
+ GSoC idea perhaps? (Caolan)
AI: file a GSoC idea (Michael S, Hossein, Samuel?)
+ similar to the saxon-based xslt
+ the libxslt replacement only supports 1.0 (not 2.0)
+ David T created the extension that supports 2.0
+ officebeans removal? (Hossein)
+ knows people who use it (Thorsten)
+ agreed (Miklos)
* What’s cooking (Miklos)
+ gbuild now tries to do less pointless incremental rebuilds (Michael S)
* QA update (Xisco)
