+ week before v. good numbers
+ only ~30% failure-rate; normally >50% -> encouraging
+ need to train people to kick-tires for manual snafu slave fixing
+ once in a while, a TB has a windows failure; 'make' CPU loops etc.
AI: + find some developer/sysadmin'y type people to train (Cloph)
+ enabled dbgutil for the Linux box
+ needs another change for other machines
+ subsequentcheck builds ? (Miklos)
+ not done a measurement to see if we can cope just now (Norbert)
+ main issue with making Jenkins useful:
+ need to be 100% reliable.
+ hanging tests are real pain
+ does that happen on Linux ? (Michael S)
+ a known deadlock in JUnit tests on Windows
+ so subsequetcheck doesn't work there well
+ not aware of any hanging issues on Linux.
+ if there is a hang on Linux / subsequentcheck - we can fix it
+ Mac hardware is mediocre (Norbert)
AI: + enable it just for Linux / dbgutil (Norbert)
+ several cppunit tests are odd (Michael S)
+ run by 'make check' and not 'make subsequentcheck'
require every library compiled before they do this.
+ would like to move some of these from check -> s.check.
+ another reason to enable these there.
AI: + move these from check -> sc (Michael)
+ this avoids make sw.all - building everything.
* LinuxFest NW update (Robinson)
+ went really well; knew it was growing, but had 2000 attendees on day one.
+ compares well to OSCON - with 4700
+ a no-cost conference with real subjects / attendees etc.
+ lots of interest in our next hackfest/community event
* Crash-testing stats at Ubuntu (Bjoern)
+ tells of a new high-frequency stack-traces ~500/week
+ hard to reproduce one on Document Close
+ weird StarBasic cleanup nasty
+ rather visible vs. normal for others 25/week
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90969
+ well worth running valgrind on it (Michael)
* VclPtr (Michael)
+ ~Window used to re-write instance vtables such that things like
virtual void LoseFocus() - got called only on Window.
+ now when we do the destruction logic - we are in 'dispose'
with a full vtable.
+ if you hit a trivial crash here then:
a) check the ::dispose NULL's things after freeing.
b) check if we've been disposed & if so do nothing much
but chaining to the parent LoseFocus etc.
+ fixed a number of these already, prolly some more to go.
* QA (Robinson)
+ UNCONFIRMED at 262
+ awesome work by Beluga, Gordo and other new QA guys
+ needAdvice at 11
+ gaining regressions however
+ Ubuntu release this week (Bjoern)
* QA stats:
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/page.cgi?id=weekly-bug-summary.html
