   + Aug-02, ~4pm CEST+1: 37/95 (28%/72%)
   => so let's do it

 * Missing 16:9 templates
   + some avail from the last competition just need to get included (Jay)
     https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Rd2oHyCMaQLWvDj3ciorJZkILsaoZV0FhomiLEsCago
   + task is to finalize the voting, clean-up the templates, and submit all eventually
   => AI: Please have a look at the GSheet and up/down vote the templates
   + once the voting is done Jay will do the grunt work

 * Terminology for Spelling and Grammar
   https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87648
   => go for 'Spelling' only

 * Introduce a 'histogram' function in Calc
   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74665
   + calculate the bins automatically (based on user input of how many) 
   + followed by frequency() and creation of the histogram
   + run as a wizard (Data > Statistics)
   + no mockup needed as the wizard have a generic ui (Tomaz)
   + formula is to find n bins equidistantly between min and max
   => no further UX input required

 * Indicator for overridden properties in inherited styles + means to reset
   https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88559
   + duplicates, good mockup for resetting properties in tdf#89826
   + indication of inherited properties needed (Jay)
   + maybe a section similar to 'contains' does the trick (Jay)
   => lets check how others do it

 * Disable Autocomplete depending on paragraph style
  + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76282
  + reasonable request but complicates the UI
  + auto complete can be disabled easily; shortcut is customizable
  => WF because too complicate for average user and out of scope
