+ New high severity bugs of the week:
+ Installation of Language Pack fails on macOS with Spotlight off
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144053
+ not marked as a regression
+ PostgreSQL native connector: Field Memo [Text] is filled with 0 instead of character content where postgres server version is greater than or equal to 13
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153431
+ needs bisecting
+ CALC - wrong time value when using the autofill function and minutes are entered (not for 00 min)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153517
+ Eike?

+ Kohei?
+ Unable to open form wizard (GTK3)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=153756
+ Already fixed, thanks Noel
* QA stats (Stéphane)
+ langpack install on macOS: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144053
+ Recommendation by several people to bundle the langpacks with main installer: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129178
Support from:
+ Tor -> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129177#c9
+ Patrick -> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128233#c80
+ spotlight is just the messenger here (Cloph)
+ integrating the langpacks into the installer is problematic
+ including the help as well would mean it's too large
+ some regions want offline help
+ perhaps a compromise: bundle UI translations
+ would be the same as we do it on Windows
+ Writer comments in margin, interaction between PDF export and print to file: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152575#c14
