Re: [libreoffice-design] Minutes from the UX/design meeting 2023-Jan-12

I have to protest meeting in which most bugs up for discussion are ones I've either filed or have 
been part of the discussion on, scheduled without consulting me regarding the time. I'm at work in 
the afternoon and can usually not attend at these hours. And then of course when I'm not there, 
naturally, there is typically nobody to argue for the idea nor to address reservations which are 
first brought up in the design meeting rather than on the bug page.
