+ unlike GSoC, only the winners get compensation
+ also strongly connected to cryptocurrencies
+ question: is it serious enough to be present there as a project? (Heiko)
+ mentors are a limited resource…
+ should select students very carefully if they are not good enough
+ suspect the winner will be a crypto-related project.. quite independent from libreoffice (Hossein)

+ None
* Developer Certification (Stephan/Kendy/Thorsten/László)

48 Killed by the kill-wrapper gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
+ large numbers of timeouts, needs investigation (Cloph)
* helpcontent2 commits breaking the build but not caught by Jenkins (Stephan)
* e.g. <https://git.libreoffice.org/help/+/77c10ceaaabe76f57014e53dbdd4560d988bb8a1%5E%21> “Fix typo in path to Tip-of-the-day xhp Fix typo in path to Tip-of-the-day xhp”, <https://git.libreoffice.org/help/+/ab1e841eac31980f39ecfcbac897220a5d5b7c2a%5E%21> “Fix duplicate id”
* improve Jenkins to catch those?
+ Jenkins only validates against the DTD (Cloph)
+ doing a full build would require more resources
+ could do with a low priority
+ also, figuring out the core.git commit from help.git is not trivial (Stephan)
+ perhaps authors don’t do a build locally before submission
+ if so, a full build has a great value
+ not sure who needs these ids anyway
+ could check for these non-unique ids explicitly, without a build (Miklos)
* tb86 (m1 mac mini) build failures with Illegal Instruction
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/115675 “Upgrade SSE2 sum to AVX512 sum with Neumaier 1"
* tb87 clang failure (picking up icu50 for some reason): still investigating
+ ideally all of these machines are centos7, configured by salt, but need to check…
+ pdb generation is now less racy, thanks to a patch from Caolan
* l10n (Sophie)
+ work is going on
+ removed 6.3 and 6.4 projects
+ splitting 7-2 projects later this week
+ possibly also updating weblate
+ problem with uploading translations via script/API
* GSoC 2021 ongoing (Heiko/Thorsten/Ilmari)
+ Mentors: please invite your students to the (online) conference (Sophie)
+ Conference slot is on Friday 24. September at 4pm for 90 mins in room 2
* LibOCon 2021 (virtual) September 23-25 (Cloph)
+ the schedule is now public: https://events.documentfoundation.org/libocon2021/schedule/
+ presenters can upload prerecorded videos now!
+ 12th Sept is the deadline for this (Thorsten)
+ have a conference template now
* What’s cooking (Miklos)
+ Gulsah adding odfundiff-based ODF diffing in crashtesting, WIP
+ core.git feature/themesupport2 (Sarper)
* Drop idlc/regmerge from SDK? (Stephan)
* Use unoidl-write (producing new types.rdb format) like in LO itself
* Requires incompatible changes of users’ makefiles
* New extensions containing types.rdb no longer work in LO < 4.1 or AOO
* Keep ability to read old types.rdb format (old extensions still work)
* Drop code from store and registry, drop all of idlc and external/ucpp
* Requires <https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/121725> “[API CHANGE] Fix all
bad UNOIDL identifiers across offapi”
* Need changes to how extensions are built
* Will ping Thorsten wrt Java IDE plugin they have
