+ 4.4.4 status
+ 4.4.5 - July 6th next deadline - Mon/Tues.
+ 5.0.0 - RC3 lots better next week: Thur/Fri.
+ Major bugs
+ Java not working without the old VS2010 MSVC runtime (Cloph on it)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92483
+ presenter console - not visible on any platform (Cloph+Michael)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91574
+ menus disappearing -> some loop, fixed on master not -5-0
+ Miklos to back-port.
+ non-common a11y code-paths from gtk3 on master in base fixed (Michael)
+ PDF export Mac (Norbert)
+ the DX-array bits don't work; so PDF appears not to be justified
+ fairly visible / annoying; fixed it 9k patches ago,
forward porting that fix makes that break again
+ want it in before RC3
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88941
+ 5.0 branch just needs a single extra review until RC3
+ heavy-duty tripple-review process & branch: Jul 6th - 2nd week July.
+ Late Feature Status (Michael)
+ LibreOfficeKit / Online tweaks (Kendy)
+ nothing affecting the core.
+ OpenGL / double-buffer RenderContext (Michael)
+ steady stream of fixes left/right.
+ OpenGL by default not achievable for 5.0.0
+ propose re-visit @ ESC for 5.0.1 for some H/W on Windows.
+ gtk3+ (Caolan)
+ gtk3 won't affect anything TDF ships for 5.0
+ Win64
+ JRE issue, cloph found a fix.
+ 5.0 splash / startcenter graphics / about dialog (Kendy?)
+ pushed changes implementing new (grey) color scheme to master.
+ pending review in gerrit.
+ implemented universally; colors can be changed back.
+ all configurable in the user-profile.
+ green is one setting away.
+ Graphics itself:
+ mostly finalized the splash.
+ do marketing know (Bjoern)
+ yes (Kendy)
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90452#c45
** + expect to push this past the UI freeze **
+ will be in the next RC3 ...
AI: + view 4x gerrit patches (Bjoern)
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/16622/
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/16623/
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/16624/
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/16625/
+ Android & iOS Remote
+ review still pending.
+ upping baseline to something that supports kde4 and possibly gtk3
+ be nice to suppoort gtk3 too - but CentOS/7 is a bit new
not a good idea to drop Ubuntu LTS.
+ CentOS/6 - to get kde4
+ proposed for MS 5.1
+ fine with it (Stephan)
+ no objections -> do it.
* UX Update (Kendy)
+ HIG guidelines updates
+ now out for comments: http://user-prompt.com/libreoffice-human-interface-guidelines-context-menu-and-sidebar/
+ 5.0 graphics - ongoing as above.
+ templates contest - 5x new templates so far.
+ more expected from team.
+ tragic data-loss in help changes.
* Documentation
* Crashtest update (Caolán)
+ 0 import failures, 3 export failures.
+ Two of those now also fixed by Caolan
+ mstahl fixed the chart referring to old-style table content recursive layout assert
+ problem exporting a non-well formed docx document.
+ testing / host upgrade (Christian)
+ upgraded to Debian 8 - problem with grub install
+ help with Manitu support -> otherwise all well.
+ machine still stable etc.
* Consolidate mobile build configurations: Android, iOS (Bjoern)
+ Ubuntu touch playing with LibreOfficeKit
+ would like to have a small build set there too.
+ lots of Android/iOS ifdefs
+ does anyone object to have a real 'mobile' switch instead ?
+ HAVE_FEATURE_DESKTOP already there (Miklos)
+ ideally #if HAVE_FEATURE_DESKTOP ... #endif
+ also to consider - run-time tiled-rendering specific check in comphelper (Kendy)
+ comphelper::LibreOfficeKit::isActive()
+ perhaps some are tiled vs. not-tiled rendering
+ tests for Android / iOS (Michael)
+ checklist in the wiki to work vs (Miklos)
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Android#gtktiledviewer
+ best to do this all at once & then check it.
+ may not generalize stuff for iOS (Michael S)
+ cf. arbitrary apple app-store guidelines.
+ nicer platform abstraction appreciated.
* GSoC (Thorsten)
+ Mid-term evaluation status: everything filed.
* Hackfests (Bjoern)
+ contacted by Aarhus LibreOffice conference guys wrt.
a hackfest.
+ 2nd day of conference
+ looking for a "topic": suggested "C++11 in LibreOffice"
+ advertising to local C++ groups ?
+ UI paper-cuts instead ? (Michael)
+ might need some talks / to prepare for that ? (Bjoern)
+ Hamburg, Germany: Oct 23rd -> 25th
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Hackfest/Hamburg2015
+ would be great to see everyone there.
+ next venues / suggestions
+ Belgium another candidate ...
* Mentoring Lead position (Bjoern)
+ possible plan to employ someone to do development mentoring at TDF
+ please provide tasks / job description bits.
AI: + send current ideas to dev list & solicit feedback (Bjoern)
* Conference / papers (Michael)
+ http://conference.libreoffice.org/2015/call-for-papers/
+ it's that time of year again ...
+ Mon - 'unofficial board meetup'
+ Tue - community meetings - ESC or not ?
+ Wed/Thur/Fri - conference.
+ Sat - board meeting
+ much less need for a private ESC meeting (Michael)
+ did this last year (Norbert)

+ looking pretty good.
+ all below 10% most below 5% - the 4.4 Mac an anomoly.
+ 40% failing on gerrit: expected.
+ some Windows bug that disappears directories - have to re-boot machines.
+ seems to be triggered by cancelling a stuck build.
+ the state of master is what matters; not gerrit - there to protect master.
* make check / JUnit deadlock fix (Michael S)
+ hopefully avoided the deadlock here
+ should be able to run 'make check' on windows too.
+ more spurious failures on Windows than Linux.
+ no known deadlocks to trigger here.
+ hardware in pipe - online before end of July: more B/W there (Norbert)
+ will try enabling make check on windows then.
* Easy Hacks:
+ new easy-hacks thanks to:
+ <no new easy-hacks>
+ http://bit.ly/1KR4HWX
+ create your own by setting whiteboard to eg.
"easyHack difficultyBeginner skillCpp topicCleanup"
* Regression / Tendering Ideas (Michael)
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/RegressionIdeas
