    + 5.0.0 - 1st Alpha release - April 13th
         + week after 4.3.7
         + marketing supports this
         + how about the profile - still call it 4? (Kendy)
             + so that we do not have to care about the migration? (Kendy)
AI: + will check with Italo the exact version number [5.0 or
5.0.0] (Cloph)
AI: + check if it's possible to still have the profile as 4
               (technically - configure.ac etc.) (Cloph)
                  + should "just work," given the "4" in the user
profile path name is only
                    hard-coded into the UserInstallation= line in the
bootstrap ini-file (Stephan)
         + QA should be made aware of this too (Bjoern)
    + Windows 64 bit story ? (Stephan)

        + fixed by reverting the commit (Moggi)
        + never hit the release branches
    + a few thousand validation false positives gone
        + by updating the office-o-tron script

              https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Hackfest/Cambridge2015

* UX Update (Kendy)
    + did not attend yesterday, sorry

    + upgrading to new Pootle version: 2.5 -> 2.7
        + large migration; fixing / customizing the new version
        + will be tested the next week
    + old version still functional / online of course

* Committers

* Developer Certification (Stephan/Bjoern/Kendy/Thorsten)
    + looked at last year's commits; perhaps a few people.
        + 3 names so far, more research going on

* Jenkins update (Norbert)
    + from:Thu Mar 26 13:46:18 2015
        + master linux jobs:137 ok:114 ko:22 break:4 broken duration:9.6%
        + master mac jobs:118 ok:98 ko:20 break:7 broken duration:10.84%
        + master win jobs:123 ok:52 ko:71 break:5 broken duration:49.41%
        + lo-4.4 mac jobs:16 ok:15 ko:1 break:1 broken duration:2.12%
    + the above is output from a script
    + goals for the numbers (Bjoern)
        + above percentage is the duration of brokeness, _not_
          the number of final push commit breakage (which is higher:
e.g. above 15% for Linux)
        + would be good to have 10% as the goal for Linux (Bjoern)
            + that is achievable if people test their commits (Norbert)
        + discuss: in light of 50% breakage on Windows -- better suggest
          newcomers on Windows to start of the last tag? (Bjoern)
AI: + extend the build guide how to check the tinderbox status and
          how to find the last working commit id there (Bjoern)
AI: + there is IRC bot that could warn about the red status (Norbert)
        + usually new tests cause that - should they always go through
gerrit? (Michael S.)
        + it is normally good to wait for the tinderbox results when you
push something (Miklos)
    + jenkins works incrementally, usually it shows the commit that
broke stuff (Norbert)
    + push to gerrit a revert to see if it helps? (Bjoern)

* QA (Robinson)
    + UNCONFIRMED at 311
    + needAdvice at 11
    + worked on bisecting
    + will have the OS X bibisect soon (Norbert)
        + that will cover 4.5 from the branch point to ~now
        + 6.5K commit so far.. prolly 7-8K commit when caught up.
