* Present:
+ Hossein, Michael W, Thorsten, Caolan, Cloph, Heiko, Ilmari, Jonathan, Michael S, Regina, Stephan, Xisco, Olivier, Miklos
* Completed Action Items:
+ enable MAR updater by default (Stephan)
* Pending Action Items:
+ perf.libreoffice.org: switch the default to the new data (Cloph)
+ Enable the commit bit for Vivek Javiya (Cloph)
+ Send the new committer mail for Vivek (Miklos)
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
+ 24.8.1 rc2 next week?
+ keep an eye on the NSS update, hopefully sorted out by Xisco
+ did anybody figure out why downgrading the NSS DLL version is a problem? (Michael S)
+ Mike K was commenting on that on IRC (Ilmari)
+ "that is likely our MSI check, which checks what to "upgrade", and chooses not to upgrade some newer DLLs; but then doing a complete uninstall."
+ not sure about the details, just updated to the latest version, then back to the ESR version (Xisco)
+ 24.2.6 rc2 this week, later today
* Cell indicator in 24.8 branch (Xisco)
+ Summary: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162646#c20
+ two topics: comment indicator and focus rectangle; no revert please (Heiko)
+ the fear is that what's there in 24.8 is half-done (Xisco)
+ comments are mixed (Ilmari)
+ some people like what's in master
+ just today 2 commits were backported
+ one more patch to merge to 24-8, would be ideal even on 24-8-1
+ the issue is quite old, the focus rectangle of a cell was painted inside the cell (Heiko)
+ then tried outside the cell to not cover content
+ design team suggestion was: push it to the release, see what the wider community likes
+ meanwhile Rafael improved this, seems people are happy with the current state
+ hope the problem is fixed
+ would like to avoid adding more options for this
+ would be good to wait, collect input and not just revert quickly
+ do you support backporting the relevant changes from master? (Ilmari)
+ like it (Heiko)
+ fine with this, just good to not experiment on release branches (Xisco)+
