+ Added a new EasyHack
tdf#163738 - Use insert() to add multiple values in containers instead of a loop
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163738
+ Cygwin/mingw hang problem
+ New fixes provided by Takashi
https://cygwin.com/cgit/newlib-cygwin/log/
+ Tested, fixes both 3.5 (stable) and master 3.6 (master)
+ 2 new fixes, problem seems to be resolved
+ plain: wait for the 3.5 release, then safe to upgrade
+ also ping the git-bash guys
+ CI job for cygwin changes? (Hossein)
+ not sure if this is viable
+ think this was a regression
+ don't mind if somebody wants to run this, but WSL is the future (Cloph)
+ after the Windows baseline update
+ and would have to be a dedicated builder to have a fixed baseline otherwise
+ moving to git-bash won't completely replace cygwin (Ilmari)
+ cygwin is not a fast moving target (Hossin)
+ maybe manual testing is also enough (Ilmari)
+ git-bash is easier to downgrade, thanks to win-get (Cloph)

+ maybe related to https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/174869 / newly introduced test
+ a bit painful, affects the canary build
+ some downtime for Jenkins, now fixed
+ expecting a few more builders in the near future -> faster builds
* What’s cooking (Miklos)
+ A11y update (Michael W)
+ make UNO a11y API more type-safe
+ align AT-SPI DBus signals sent by toolkits with AT-SPI spec
+ RTL/CTL/CJK update (Jonathan)
+ tdf#36709: Font-relative first-line indent (CJK)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36709
+ Continued work
+ Writer documents with font-relative indents roundtrip correctly
+ Now the layout part
+ Planning to do this one use-case at a time
+ then the GUI part
+ PVS-Studio update (Xisco)
+ perhaps put results somewhere first, then ai xisco turn this into CI job
+ transition to ODF 1.4 (Regina)
+ a problem: some tests validate against 1.3
+ by the implicit validation works with the latest ODF version
+ suggestion: skip the validation in this case (Regina)
+ a seprate could be to also validate against old versions
+ maybe the test could specify which version it wants for the validation (Michael S)
+ can be done separately, OK to tmp disable validation to unblock ODF 1.4 migration
+ currently working on extrusion, then handles for custom shapes (Regina)
