+ ?? 4(+0) coverity
+ coverity scan is still down for synopsys rebranding (maybe)
+ down permanently ? Over a week being re-branded.
+ forcepoint
+ fixed the last set of reports, lots of nullptr de-referencing
+ sent sample docs to AOO for reference.
+ 45 fuzzers * 3 sanitizers+engine combos (asan+libfuzzer,
ubsan+libfuzzer, asan+afl), font parser last added
+ addressed a number of timeout issues
+ down to ~20 fuzzing issues there.
+ test case documents are sometimes used by other doc fuzzers
+ causing issues for other people

+ pushed patch to master & -6-0 – hopefully will improve.

+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Hackfest/Hamburg2018
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Hackfests/HackfestTNG
+ please book travel & add your name there.
+ hope to combine it with the German Community Meeting …
+ would be good to reach out to more people if we can.
+ Mike S to do a social media outreach on this (Sophie)
* Weld / widgetry (Caolan)
+ demos at LibOCon of native widgets & dialogs
+ fallback to native dialogs / widgets
+ all message-dialogs converted over to native last week.
+ obvious one warning: “have you saved document”
+ working on some sample dialogs to get a feel here.
+ async pieces
+ looking at this today.
+ been extending this; to keep dialogs working.
+ produce an async case for gtk+ too.
+ keep controller / builder around.
+ lifecycles should match.
+ creating a new API for all widgetry
+ examples so far – very basic.
+ sometimes need more calls
+ bit of work still; no point in doing it on a branch.
+ std::function – lambda instead of link ? (Michael)
+ looking at little differences causing problems already (Caolan)
+ long way to go yet
+ tree view is a tricky thing
+ assumptions in the glade files causing grief too.
+ min/max values for spin-buttons – real sharing etc.
+ a11y ? (Michael)
+ so far all one or other toolkit (Caolan)
+ fits into existing native gtk a11y work.
+ fixing mis-parented dialogs at the same time.
* Exotic Filter warnings (Michael)
+ https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/50387/
+ presents a warning on very unusual file formats
+ defaults vs. implementation
+ perhaps dialog trains people to click ok anyway ? (Michael S)
+ value tagging them (Miklos)
+ prefer a safe-mode, but its lots of work.
+ the dialog gives value for little effort.
+ MSO triggers something similar for network drives.
+ tie it into safe-locations (Stephan)
+ stuff you stored yourself – considered safe, vs. E-mail unsafe.
+ love it (Michael)
+ Microsoft has a similar warning for old binary file formats (Caolan)
+ may be useful text.
=> discuss defaults later & get it in now.

* Commit Access
* Developer Certification (Stephan/Bjoern/Kendy/Thorsten)
+ sleep for 6 weeks.
* Jenkins / CI update (Xisco)
+ master gerrit verification switched from "Matrix project" to
"Multi Job" in Jenkins.
+ configured to kill all other jobs if one platform fails
+ status page only shows builds actually building, no confusion anymore with
links going to previous buildresults in case there is no queueslot for a
given config
+ now shows duration of the builds and direct link to the log
+ allows to "resume" builds (similar to retrigger, but only requeues
configs that failed or were aborted, so useful if a build breaks with
a spurious failure in a test on only one system when the others had
already been built)
+ Dramatic decrease in verification times seen (Miklos, Eike)
"cons": order of builds is no longer static, but depending on when the build
gets actually started (but don't really a drawback from my POV, typically
you're only interested in the status/color of a build and don't really care
whether it failed on Windows or Mac, you'd open the log anyway to have a look.

Notes on stats:
single failure fails/aborts the whole project, so failure rates for individual
OS to be taken with a grain of salt/depending on which have available executors
(who has a chance to build first, has a chance to fail first, and thus the rest
isn't running into the issue/won't appear in stats as failed)
Windows had problems with buildslave issues that failed lots of builds, so both
windows (as well as overall failure rate) not as bad as the plain numbers
suggest.
New columns in stats: average/mean and median buildtimes for successful builds.
* Budgeting (Thorsten)
+ collecting other wish-lists – cross-check with GSoC ideas
+ current ideas list:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Budget2018
+ deadline of the hack-fest for submitting ideas.
+ Thorsten watching edits to discuss controversial bits here.
* l10n (Sophie)
+ po template has been updated; new l10n round for master.
+ translation is ongoing, a l10n camp happening in Nepal right now.
* ODF & incompatible changes (Michael S)
+ open question – releases before dropping workarounds (Miklos)
+ N=5 → 2.5 years seems reasonable.
+ triggered by a bug related to such a change
+ fix in 5.3 back-ported; export change in 6.0 branch
bit too short of a time-frame for such a change.
+ reverted export change in 6.0 branch.
+ should we comment with times to remove – 2020-06 ? (Michael)
+ since we can’t map times to versions easily.
+ fortunately not happened in the last couple of years
+ some from the OO times.
+ odd bug, whereby ‘hidden’ attribute on paragraphs stored
with an inverted value – all paras were hidden.
Fixed in 2.0 by checking generator:
+ generator string is tricky (Eike)
+ branded name + version information
+ need some static identifier
+ do write major/minor version (Michael S)
+ could be a branded product.
+ might be a problem.
+ ideally should have programatic non-branded name + branded
+ in C’bra branch – write Collabora + LibreOffice_project (Miklos)
+ info is there in the documents: the hard bit to change.
