19 CppunitTest_sw_uibase_uiview gerrit_windows new since Feb 11 - maybe side-effect of https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/146726 or 146725?
+ this week: apart from having a new prominent crasher, was a good week
+ one macOS builder ran out of disk space, fixed now
* LibreOffice hackfest in Cambridge (Miklos)
+ as part of COOL days: 28 & 29th March 2023

+ New "verified" feature on Flathub,
<https://discourse.flathub.org/t/how-do-you-get-a-flathub-submission-verified/3714/2>
+ Assuming we'd like to get that for the LO builds I upload there
+ Verification process involves me placing certain files on
<https://libreoffice.org/> (instructions like "Create a page at
https://libreoffice.org/.well-known/org.flathub.VerifiedApps.txt containing the
following token")
+ Should I contact website@, or can I get that sorted out with somebody here,
maybe Cloph?
+ best to send the content & details to hostmaster@ (Cloph)
