+ Reminder to book travel

+ we have TDF travel budget $1k to spend
+ approved Caolan, Michael, Thorsten
+ If you're coming - please add your name to the wiki
+ helps with food ordering
AI: + add KACST guys to wiki (Ahmad)
* Report from San Francisco meet-up (Bjoern)
+ not a large number of participants, but just a first meet-up
+ all interested, more permanant presence needed
+ more promotion needed next time
* gerrit mails decision (Bjoern / Kendy)
+ find out how many subscribers on the dev list (Kendy)
+ 598 full mails and 186 digest guys
+ Proposed compromise: (decide on it next time)
+ build a daily digest of submitted patches -> dev list
+ with commit messages, authors, links etc.
+ turn other notifications off
+ better document the gerrit mail / notification settings
+ encourage people who want to see everything to do that.
+ concern around workload for gerrit sending lots
more mail out (Norbert)
+ suck it and see for a week (Michael)
+ Go with the compromise
AI: + get the digest bits setup (Bjoern)
+ already have a script by David for that, put that
into the dev-tools/ repository bikeshedding there.
* GSOC update (Cedric)
+ handled and retained two duplicate students so far
+ de-duplication meeting tomorrow
+ no notification of students until Google announce that
+ by May 27th - students will know.
+ smooth progress - thanks to Cedric + Fridrich
* UX input
+ no-designer around.
* Better communication / hangouts / webcams (Michael)
+ google hangouts restrict us to 10x people
+ video/audio mix is possible
+ try next time to fuse a hangout + the existing dial-in
AI: + send gmail contact details to Michael to build a circle (All interested)
* Scattered dependent packages issues (Bjoern)
+ minor LibreOffice updates often require a slew of
other minor package updates around the wpd* set
+ do we have any visibility into if this might
cause regressions
+ no good ideas how to solve it
+ for SUSE (Petr)
+ we build them bundled for older products
+ don't have big problems updating the set otherwise
+ could use the bundled versions, but against Debian policy (Bjoern)
+ could ask for exceptions for wpd* - unlikely to work well
+ could fix by not updating requirements in configure (Petr)
+ all ABI back-compatible within the series (Michael)
=> recommend to keep binary compat in the major series after x.y.2
and stick with old versions in releases (if possible)
+ if not possible, mail Bjoern.
** Hard Hacks - re-visit (Joel / Bjoern)
+ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/HardHacks
+ lots of progress - but mostly by fixing MABs
+ calc slot 'open' for weeks.
+ QA call mostly ok with sunsetting it, did it's job
for it's time (Bjoern)
+ QA team has got bigger, and has been fixing prioritisation
which does something similar (Joel)
+ The new 'need-advice' keyword helps the QA <-> Developer
communication around hard (to confirm) bugs.
* Certification Program (Stephan/Kendy/Bjoern)
+ discussion about certified developer logo, do we have one ? (Stephan)
+ need to send certificates out.
* QA request - for areas to test (Joel)
+ need to have some areas to go dig at, that is easy to find
+ QA looked into 3.6.x series to see how many regressions happened
within the series, work pending there.
