* Pending Action Items:
    + please file an Easy-Hack this week: just a bug with whiteboard: (All)
            "EasyHack DifficultyBeginner SkillCpp TopicCleanup"
        + thanks to:
            + Stephan, Michael, Lionel, Ashdod, Miklos,
        + http://bit.ly/1Dd4y8b
    + review / amend GSOC ideas page (All)
        + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GSoC/Ideas
    + look into setting up OpenID proxy after 4.4.0 release (Cloph)
    + sort out UX / QA call timing conflict (Kendy / Sophie)
 
* GSoC (Cedric)
    + We need to have new ideas added to the wiki page:
        https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas
        + sooner the better etc. preferably before FOSDEM: today / tomorrow.
    + February, 9th: Mentoring organizations can begin submitting applications to Google.
        + we need a good page by then.
    + admin vs. mentoring & GSOC travel.
        + title: "Mentor summit" (Thorsten)
            + precisely 2x slots, and historically those were for admins.
            + who at the same time did mentoring.
        + never happened that a non-mentor went (Fridrich)
 
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
    + 4.4.0 retrospective
        + released as final; but overshadowed by website down-time.
        + currently only a maint-page, that directs to mirror-brain
            + will be fixed in the next 10mins or so.
        + why does mirror-brain work ? (Cloph)
            + extremely slow adding releases to MySQL database
              to avoid partial download page completeness; disabled.
    + 4.3.6 RC2
        + built for Linux / Mac so far.
        + holding off until glustre FS heals itself, to avoid new I/O load.
    + Android & iOS Remote
        + patches in gerrit status ?
 
* Bugzilla migration update (Cloph)
    + retrospective
        + went really well.
        + initially a long-running query blocked others
             + if we have queries that time-out, poke Cloph to extend.
             + was a mis-configuration; now fixed.
        + pretty flawless - just works (Michael)
    + one issue in redmine (Bjoern)
        + while you can't file new bugs anymore, you can reply via E-mail
             + not many people doing that; the inexperienced users.
             + might be an issue for a few days, will prolly stop in a month.
    + impressed that the esc bug scripts still work (Michael)
    + we should now use tdf#12345 for bugs in commits
        + thanks to moggi for the fix.
 
* Translations problems (Sophie)
    + conclusions on translation ?
        + do we now have a means for developers to do a large /
	  scripted translation relevant change ?
