* Questions from the audience
+ How do you decide what gets into the agenda?
+ ESC calls are open, you can add items to the pad + join the jitsi call (Cloph)
+ Xisco brought the macOS/firebird/app store problem to the ESC to have a decision on it
+ As somebody who does QA work, it never accured to him to take some problem to the ESC
+ what is the criteria to raise it in this call?
+ many parts of the project has their own meetings, there is no fixed rule (Cloph)
+ ESC has a qa section (Kendy)
+ high severity issues + most pressing problems discussed there
+ "which bugs to discuss" is a defined criteria
+ agenda has these prepared
+ buzilla is the right place to discuss issues (Xisco)
+ a small subset will be discussed in the ESC call
+ What discussions need a decision from the ESC?
+ usually we just do changes to master if it's not a large-scale change (Cloph)
+ then bugfixes get backported to release branches
+ when do you create release branches?
+ LibreOffice has a time-based release schedule (Kendy)
+ Cloph creates release shedules well ahead of time, 2 major releases each year
+ so allows people to get their feature in time into master
+ if an exception is needed: late feature way, if we know the feature will be late by e.g. 1-2 weeks
+ it's always an option to make a feature experimental on the release branch, to help users who would use the feature by accident
* Completed Action Items:
+ None
* Pending Action Items:
+ Enable firebird as non-experimental for macOS app store builds (Cloph)
+ pondered if it is worth doing, but otherwise would have no options at all
+ not needed for the address book / mail merge functionality
+ Base is just not used for many users
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
+ 7.4 status: 7.4.2 rc2 in 1 week
+ 7.3 status: 7.3.7 rc1 in 2 weeks
+ last planned 7.3.x release

+ macOS is published
