+ hopefully helpful for diagnostics
+ Finalized and published a blog post on dev blog
Highlight the current row and column in Calc – difficulty interesting EasyHack

+ tests that failed more than twice in last seven days
5 UITest_calc_tests9 gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
7 UITest_calc_tests8 gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
9 CppunitTest_starmath_qa_cppunit gerrit_windows
12 Killed by the kill-wrapper gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
12 UITest_inputLine gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
+ more frequent than last week
+ interestingly had this failing a lot last year in Aug
16 Killed by the kill-wrapper gerrit_mac
+ there is a change regarding how builds are run (Cloph)
+ if the change "is likely" to fail, then only linux-clang-dbgutil builds, and only then the rest
+ that's why the clang build number is higher
+ this also shows in the failed tests numbers
+ new boxes, like tb99, call to gdb is not ideal (Stephan)
+ auto-allow-list path is not configured, so python backtraces don't work nicely
+ including our own pretty-printers
AI: Cloph to look at that
* What’s cooking (Thorsten)
+ ccache on Windows (Hossein)
+ heard PCH builds are faster than ccache
+ yes, saw that locally (Cloph)
+ think ccache + pch won't work together (Cloph)
+ works for an initial build, but not for subsequent ones
+ pch is already used on CI (Cloph)
+ C++20 (Stephan)
+ have a couple of gerrit changes which are green on all platforms
+ will propose a new compiler version to be required, in the coming weeks
+ multi-page floating tables in Writer, see tdf#155118 for details (Miklos)
+ looking into l10n issues in Math (Khaled)
+ non-English locale uncovers not showing symbols, etc
+ especially RTL, looking into fixing these
+ looking into issues with popups not announced in NVDA (Michael W)
+ also some cleanups, removing unnecessary indirections
* JDK bump to 17 (android build or all?) (Michael W)
+ required by a newer gradle
+ also the same for the whole Linux baseline or stick to JDK11 there? (Cloph)
+ not sure if there is any benefit in maintaining an old baseline here (Michael S)
+ JRE8 was reported to not work (Hossein)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155668
+ build baseline is JDK9 (Miklos)
+ runtime baseline is JRE8 (Stephan)
+ do we produce .class files that would not work with JRE8? (Michael S)
+ think we pass the right target flags to make this work (Stephan)
+ JAVA_TARGET_VER → should not cause runtime change
=> no objections to bump the build-time baseline
* LibreOffice conference Bucharest 2023 (Gabriel)
+ talked with Rafael (Olivier)
+ will do the workshop for scripting
+ will reach out to Hossein
