[Heiko Tietze]

Present: John, Heiko
Comments: Ming, Joao, Seth, Michael, Sophie, Dieter, Cor

Tickets/Topics

  * Should "Region" field be missing in Options -> LibreOffice -> User Data?
    (or is label wrong?)
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147098
    + "Country and Region" (Ming)
    + "Territory" or "Nation or Region" (Joao)
    + weird state field dependency between UI and chosen language (Seth)
    => change to "Country or Region" to keep effort low for l10n

  * Move Validity drop-down list control inside cell
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136878
    + GSheets starts editing from left and adds spacing to numbers with
      a validity list behind; if we do the same, all numbers would be
      differently aligned and editing makes the content jump (Heiko)
    + no advantage to always show the validity information (Cor)
    => visually appealing but functionality not an improvement => WF

  * Spelling dialog in Writer hard to use with screen reader
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135234
    + change the initial focus from "Connect" to the misspelled word
    + "one default for all" is failing anyway so better do a11y conform (Michael)
    => change the initial focus

  * Inconsistent name references for Writer document
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136077
    + change only OS context menu to "Writer Document" (Sophie)
    => change STR_DESCRIPTION_OO_WRITER_DOC to "%PRODUCTNAME Writer Document"
       also for other modules; keep the start center/file menu difference

  * Compression settings for images should remember user's choice
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146929
    + remember all user settings (Dieter)
    => needsDevAdvice for implementation

  * Drop PNG fallback for SVG
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147248
    => decision to be made by ESC
