+ send bluez 5.0 bug # to Caolan (Michael)
[ ahunt looking into this ]
+ update certification website (Kendy)
+ create a meta-bug for large l10n relevant 4.3 issues (Andras)
https://bugs.libreoffice.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76203
* Pending Action Items:
+ crashtest box - more research (Moggi/Cloph)
[ still pending discovering which document is the one ...
box is doing something now (Cloph) ... ]
+ will try filing a lot of small string changes as easy hacks (Astron)
* Release Engineering update (Christian)
+ iOS remote approved with fix for iOS5
+ will pull the Android remote translations, and will publish
that as a public release
+ 4.2.3 rc2 status
+ pushed to early testing & QA already, synching to the mirrors
+ will be released today / tomorrow morning.
+ on-line update is triggered by micro version being larger
+ so far only 4.2 getting updates to 4.2.2
+ users on 4.1.5 etc. not getting updates to that.
+ 4.1.next - April 7th
* UX update (Astron)
+ not much to report
* Daylight saving reminder:
+ same European local-time next week
* Performance regression testing (Matus)
+ raw data from Matus' callgrind / tinderbox profiling script is:
+ http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/callgrind_report/
+ recently expanded to use around 10x test files
+ we load them, and save them and log the pseudo-cycles
+ the hope is that this will run regularly (taking ~10 hours)
and produce a long time series to spot performance problems.
+ history_old.fods
+ concerned by the big 7x XLSX test jump (Norbert)
+ in beginning, only loading, but now exporting too, and
the export takes a lot longer.
+ the big drop is 20x days of data we lost
+ performance seems stable, if not very slightly better over time
+ what do the numbers mean ? (Kohei)
+ they are callgrind pseudo-cycles - using cache simulation (Matus)
+ can we publish the latest callgrind output files ? (Michael)
+ sounds reasonable
AI: + look into automatic up-load of data & last callgrind traces (Matus/Cloph)
+ where is the script ? (Michael)
+ in buildbot.git/loperf/*
+ test files in testfiles.git/loperf
+ why are numbers in history.fods different ? (Kendy)
+ divided by a million to make it easier to read (Matus)
+ also measuring the first-ever-start and 1st start (Matus)
* Security-related bugs in release notes (Michael Stahl)
+ users should not be adding those, eg:
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/index.php?title=ReleaseNotes%2F4.0&diff=87766&oldid=86905
+ not really a security bug & => should be removed.
+ shouldn't list security bugs in the release notes (Norbert)
+ many bugs are security bugs
+ concerned wrt. the process too (Bjoern)
+ if we do fix security bugs we have the page here:
+ https://www.libreoffice.org/about-us/security/advisories/
+ mozilla have a single CVE for each release (Michael)
+ that includes all potential security related issues
+ concern with other projects using the code
+ concern wrt. total Mitre non-responsiveness
+ leave as-is.
AI: + remove recently added, misleading security bug section from release notes (Michael S)
* GSoC update (Cedric)
+ have around a dozen good looking students

AI: + inform marketing guys wrt. certification (Kendy)
* UX test at LibrePlanet / SpinachCon (Robinson)
+ several bugs / rendering issues to enter
+ events are important, get good feedback etc.
* QA (Robinson)
+ doing a bit better with bug triage this week
+ stable at 930 or so unconfirmed
+ almost no 4.2 writer regressions
+ down to about three
+ asked QA veterans to priotize old bugs and
identify which are real regressions.
+ buzilla migration - not happening
+ crawling fdo bug XML with
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=dev-tools.git;a=blob;f=scripts/dumpbz;h=75a402b6686073b2e08ced5a1da60f374c18ef1e;hb=27fbc2ee4710d7f5a28a77154255bd75faac8a44
+ hope to have whole state of fdo bugs locally by then.
+ possibly other targets for that ...
+ need to merge bibisect repos, update bibisect docs (Bjoern taking over)
+ likely needs more space on dev-downloads, but infra is on that AFAIK
