* emergency release numbering policy (Bjoern/Eike)
+ if we always bump micro (major.minor.micro.nano)
then we have problems with bugzilla "fixed in <next>"
comments, not just attribute (Eike)
+ potentially update nano - as in 4.2.6.3 - no text changes
+ for this OOB release, recommend people patch don't ver. bump
themselves if necessary.
* GSOC Update (Cedric)
+ all set.
+ Remaining things to do:
+ Students should send a small blog / links etc. of what they
did to Cedric so he can write a summary post.
+ Google re-blogs this often, so - prettiness is mandatory.
+ if help needed wrt. tar-ball creation; it's easy see here:
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GSoc#Code_submission

+ run out of disk space -- new build will take 5 days
