* What’s cooking (Thorsten)
+ alpha/transparency change in vcl (Noel)
+ we've always stored transparency the wrong way
+ and then had to convert, at pretty much every API surface, and during
import/export
+ things are nice & clean now - some speedup, and easier to understand
+ next up: remove split alpha bitmaps, and have it inline (RGBA) instead
+ platform a11y tests for gtk3 (Colomban Wendling, Hypra):
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/153069
+ tender by TDF, last stage of the work
+ locking down what we do on internal a11y api
+ almost there, some last remaining problems
+ will need some extra packages on CI, to run those tests - already
installed (optional, configure checks for them)
* LibreOffice conference Bucharest 2023 (Gabriel)
+ some visa issues, trying to work-around it
+ two speakers affected - trying to solve that creatively
+ around 60 registrations, around 30 for the workshop
+ will do more local PR - expects more people signing up
+ many people from outside Romania, for the workshop - very nice to see!
+ 70 presentation - and 53 speakers in total
+ AI all accepted speakers please confirm your attendance (email from
LibreOffice Conference 2023 <noreply at documentfoundation.org>)
