+ Wiki page for tasks:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
+ 4.4.2 released as final today
+ 4.4.3 RC1 status April 13th
+ 4.3.7 RC1 April 7th or so
+ planned for the next Wed.
+ 5.0.0 - 1st Alpha release - April 13th
+ week after 4.3.7
+ marketing supports this
+ how about the profile - still call it 4? (Kendy)
+ so that we do not have to care about the migration? (Kendy)
AI: + will check with Italo the exact version number [5.0 or 5.0.0] (Cloph)
AI: + check if it's possible to still have the profile as 4
(technically - configure.ac etc.) (Cloph)
+ should "just work," given the "4" in the user profile path name is only
hard-coded into the UserInstallation= line in the bootstrap ini-file (Stephan)
+ QA should be made aware of this too (Bjoern)
+ Windows 64 bit story ? (Stephan)
+ targeting this for Alpha 1 with Norbert (Cloph)
+ tinderbox will be ready for the Alpha
+ Android & iOS Remote
* Crashtest update (Markus / Caolán)
+ regression around xls export crashes
+ jumped recently from 5 to 130 - what's the status?
+ fixed by reverting the commit (Moggi)
+ never hit the release branches
+ a few thousand validation false positives gone
+ by updating the office-o-tron script
+ import crashes look great - ~20
+ export crashes still high, most in Writer

* UX Update (Kendy)
+ did not attend yesterday, sorry
* l10n Update (Sophie)
+ upgrading to new Pootle version: 2.5 -> 2.7
+ large migration; fixing / customizing the new version
+ will be tested the next week
+ old version still functional / online of course
* Committers
* Developer Certification (Stephan/Bjoern/Kendy/Thorsten)
+ looked at last year's commits; perhaps a few people.
+ 3 names so far, more research going on
* Jenkins update (Norbert)
+ from:Thu Mar 26 13:46:18 2015
+ master linux jobs:137 ok:114 ko:22 break:4 broken duration:9.6%
+ master mac jobs:118 ok:98 ko:20 break:7 broken duration:10.84%
+ master win jobs:123 ok:52 ko:71 break:5 broken duration:49.41%
+ lo-4.4 mac jobs:16 ok:15 ko:1 break:1 broken duration:2.12%
+ the above is output from a script
+ goals for the numbers (Bjoern)
+ above percentage is the duration of brokeness, _not_
the number of final push commit breakage (which is higher: e.g. above 15% for Linux)
+ would be good to have 10% as the goal for Linux (Bjoern)
+ that is achievable if people test their commits (Norbert)
+ discuss: in light of 50% breakage on Windows -- better suggest
newcomers on Windows to start of the last tag? (Bjoern)
AI: + extend the build guide how to check the tinderbox status and
how to find the last working commit id there (Bjoern)
AI: + there is IRC bot that could warn about the red status (Norbert)
+ usually new tests cause that - should they always go through gerrit? (Michael S.)
+ it is normally good to wait for the tinderbox results when you push something (Miklos)
+ jenkins works incrementally, usually it shows the commit that broke stuff (Norbert)
+ push to gerrit a revert to see if it helps? (Bjoern)
* QA (Robinson)
+ UNCONFIRMED at 311
+ needAdvice at 11
+ worked on bisecting
+ will have the OS X bibisect soon (Norbert)
+ that will cover 4.5 from the branch point to ~now
+ 6.5K commit so far.. prolly 7-8K commit when caught up.
* QA stats:
