+ big CONGRATULATIONS to contributors who have at least 1 merged patch, since last report:
Cristina Mustatea
* Commit Access
* Developer Certification (Stephan/Miklos/Thorsten/László)
+ resting since: 8 weeks (limit: 20 weeks)
* Jenkins / CI update (Cloph)
+ seems to be working as usual
* Impress Remote poor wifi handling (Michael S)
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/159786
+ bluetooth is better
+ the wifi layear doesn't provide the same safe channel
+ new config setting: enable remote only enables bluetooth
+ second checkbox also enables wifi, which is not recommended
+ in theory, a TLS-SRP would be useful
+ but only supported by openssl -> put that aside for now
+ verified that bluetooth continues to work
+ quality of the slide previews are poor, though (Hossein)
+ right now unencrypted URP is also allowed
+ added a setting where you can disable the URP completely (Michael S)
+ assume it's used in server applications, where you don't have an end user
+ would be nice to have this connection encrypted
+ would be nice to secure this (Hossein)
+ you need to enable this manually, wouldn't worrry (Michael S)
+ it still wouldn't help (Thorsten)
+ even if it's encrypted, still everyone can connect to it
+ not seeing the point
+ no authentication (Michael S)
+ don't think we should be bothered (Thorsten)
+ this is listening on localhost / local pipe
+ we currently default to allow the switch to enable the URP (Michael S)
* What’s cooking (Miklos)
+ Multi-page floating tables in Writer, see tdf#157119 for details (Miklos)
+ worked on some bugfixes
+ A11y update (Michael W)
+ support for block quote role for gtk4
+ Import of Word drawing canvas (Regina)
+ Noel pointed out some unused code
+ text-on-shape-in-group is not correctly imported, will investigate
+ curved connectors: made some import/export progress
+ current UNO API exposes the wrong value for a property -> needs fixing
+ will do it after text-on-shape-in-group

+ Cloph thinks this is related to lightproof (Ilmari)
+ it's suspected to be about localised date & time formats
+ you don't need a Norwegian spellchecker, the locale is enough
+ the English lightproof will also show the problem
+ will CC Laszlo in the bug
+ is it possible to check for such problems in uitests? (Hossein)
+ suggest to have a fix first (Michael)
+ New high severity bugs of the week:
