+ not clear if this is specific to a single bot or not (or patch series)
+ mostly smooth sailing, except more than usual # of Android failures
+ not sure if it was a problem with the bot or the code, but now better
* l10n (Sophie)
+ work is going on
* What’s cooking (Miklos)
+ replace idlc/regmerge with unoidl-write (Stephan):
+ points raised by Samuel:
+ drop unused css.resource.XLocale completely: will do
+ wait for DevGuide available at LO, to document changes there;
what’s the status?
+ waiting for the green light from Ilmari (Guilhem)
+ only do such changes for 8.0, not for some 7.x; what’s others’ thoughts?
+ i.e. 7.4 or 8.0?
+ seeing minor releases and major releases the same technically (Stephan)
+ major version bumps are decided by Marketing (Michael S, Miklos)
+ make system colors customizable for dark mode on Windows and macOS (Heiko)
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/3548
+ bug 118320 and bug 118017
+ too many options (Caolan)
+ alternatively set only via extension
+ just respect the system setting? (Miklos)
+ beyond current capabilities (Heiko)
+ would this also affect the white Writer page background? (Hossein)
+ happy gtk3 dark mode user
+ dark background + bright document background looks odd (Heiko)
+ if you expose all color names in extensions, you are stuck with them forever (Caolan)
+ consider it before you do it, they are not free
+ if the root cause is system-level dark mode, avoid workarounds, please
+ calc auto-input (Kendy)
+ there has been progress since the last time we talked about this
+ Dennis reverted the patches in 7.2 + merged
+ for master: bash-like completing is now implemented (complete till the prefix is the same for all candidates)
+ still on gerrit
+ budget planning: to be done by the end of year (Cloph)
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Budget2022
* @lists.freedesktop.org: Leave at FDO or migrate to TDF? (Guilhem)
+ Migration has been stalled for over a year but can be resumed if there is demand for it.
+ Summer 2020: effort by William (wget) to migrate remaining FDO lists to TDF
+ not much happened since then
+ last week: a FDO admin poked us: what is happening here?
+ FDO-hosted idea was: be able to post to the lists without subscribing (Kendy)
+ while TDF required this
+ it was also about allowing attachments (Cloph)
+ much less interest now, using gerrit for patches
+ there is some flexibility here, could allow e.g. ESC bug-stats (Guilhem)
+ could have a mostly matching setup (Guilhem)
+ would be a disruptive migration (people have to adapt the address)
+ benefit: if in trouble, TDF admins can’t help (Guilhem)
+ one of the moderators (Stephan)
+ Kendy and Eike also does that
+ no strong opinion
+ recently not much questions there
+ if can also move the spam filters, that’s fine (Eike)
+ also with graylisting (quite some noise)
+ have 250 rules already (Guilhem)
+ mailman: also supports put-on-hold (Eike)
+ header → hold / discard, that’s fine (Guilhem)
+ is it worth the disruption? (Kendy)
+ it if is broken, people complain, and that’s not the case currently (Guilhem)
+ can do a test conversion and then can take a look at the result, and decide later (all)
