* UX input (Astron)
+ concern wrt. responding to open-issues on the UX advise list
+ hope to do better next time.
+ colour themes in documents
+ is anyone interested in hacking on this ?
+ requires some level of UI / design work up-front
+ request for new icon:
AI: + re-send details (Lionel)
+ new flat icon theme bits happening here:
+ https://github.com/libodesign/flat-icons
* Learning lessons from the template manager story (Cedric)
+ was never included in any release as an experimental feature
+ can we find a way to encourage people to try experimental features ?
+ communication problems around entirely new UI elements (Astron)
+ better testing of new designs needed early in the cycle (Cedric)
+ no need for a formal process, shouldn't be hard to get
testers for nice new features (Bjoern)
AI: + need design for copying styles between templates (Astron/UX)
+ either in that dialog or a new dialog
+ also issue with only editing templates that are
in the mgr
* use non-versioned installation directory on Windows for 4.0.3? (Petr)
+ see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62303
+ proposed by Pedro and Stuart
+ this is supposed to solve 'shared extension' migration
problems in the future
+ are there really migration problems (Andras)
+ what happens with upgrades (Lionel)
+ that's the question.
+ shouldn't be migrating shared extensions (Fridrich)
+ might solve one issue but break other things
extensions that crash while loading etc.
+ nothing against using the same name (Stephan)
+ same issue for user-extensions, can blacklist etc.
+ we have two versions - user config directory '4' and
for installations we have 4.0
+ or use just the major version.
+ decided: change the default install directory to
'LibreOffice 4', major version changes require more work.
AI: + will switch to this for 4.1.0 (ie. on master)
* gnumake (Michael)
AI: + finally remove the */prj/build.lst files ...
* GSOC ideas page (Cedric)
Needs updating by 28th Mar.
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas
* gnumake enabled improvements (Bjoern)
+ killing off delivered headers - they bust LTO
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61627#c3
+ prefer to have a top-level folder with all headers in it (Bjoern)
+ disadvantage headers not in modules to which they belong (Michael S)
+ alternative $(srcdir) as an include header ...
can then include any file from anywhere
+ instead have the global headers in one central global directory
AI: + check behaviour of git-cherry-pick
AI: + write up for the mailing list (Bjoern)
+ find out how other big projects:
Mozilla, linux, etc. do this
+ why bother ? (Michael)
+ all to work around Windows performance issues:
copying headers, lots of dmake rules, incapable
of handling lots of -I
+ work needs to be done post 4.0.2 (ie. next month)
+ decided to go ahead absent any mailing-list flameage
* Coverity progress (Markus/Julien/Norbert/Caolan)
+ work ongoing, going well.
* Automated crash on import test results (Markus)
+ still suffering memory corruptions, another reliability
bug elsewhere, nasties ...
* Certification Program (Stephan/Kendy/Bjoern)
+ following up with individuals
+ website ML poked to create page for listing devs
+ turned into a huge thread, not read yet
* Build Hardware (Thorsten)
+ plan to buy a fast Mac / set-it-up & get it running
+ plan to order, get it setup in Munich near Florian
AI: + buy build hardware (Thorsten)
