* Present: Heiko, Kendy, Samuel
  
* UI changes integrated since the last meeting:
 
    + resource menus & readonly improvements (Maxim)
    + new saving behavior + indication (Maxim)
    + "show draw functions" button for Draw & Impress (Gulsah)

+ Comments on design blog (Heiko)
 
    + currently go to only one person (Heiko)
    + let's ask admins to setup a mail alias for the main account (Kendy)
 
+ Blog about menu changes (Heiko)
 
    + Reason: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91820
    + to explain what has been done, what are the concepts behind that (Heiko)
        + sounds great (Kendy)
    + ideal if Jay can do that, he did all the heavy lifting...
        + Heiko about to work on a draft, details needed from Jay
 
+ Find&Replace dialog in the sidebar (Heiko)
 
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96394
    + Sidebar as a host for functions? - F&R is not a property like paragraph settings, for instance
 
    + it is possible from the development point of view (Heiko)
        + but do we want that conceptually?
        + another example where this was attempted: change tracking (Heiko)
 
    + conceptually - it is changing the meaning of the sidebar a bit
        + sidebar is not meant as a replacement for dialogs (at least currently) (Heiko)
        + overall, moving some modeless dialogs to sidebar could be a not-that-bad thing (Kendy)
            + can imagine scenarios where it is useful to be able quickly switch between
              eg. change tracking and search/replace (which would take too much space with just 
dialogs)
 
    + let's think a bit more about this, and if we agree to this, make this a GSoC project
 
    + many search&replace bugs in the bugzilla, would be good to have them in mind too
      when considering the move to the sidebar (Heiko)
        + design session to mocup it with these in mind, prioritization, etc. needed (Heiko)
        + GSoC not that near, let's do it in some later Friday, after the normal meeting
 
+ Save button behavior (Samuel)
 
    + implemented now
        + thanks so much Maxim!
 
    + not in RC2 yet (Samuel)
        + the only missing bit is the icon (Samuel)
        + Heiko will sync with Andreas if he can have that before the RC2
          (Tuesday evening tagging)
        + Samuel will backport to libreoffice-5-1
            + then 3 reviews needed for the late feature, Kendy to ask ESC on the ML
 
+ Mail merge toolbar (Kendy)
 
    + implementation mostly finished (Kendy)
        + bugfixing before I can merge it to master
 
* Area Tab design session (Heiko/Jay)
 
    + Area Tab - https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94551

    + ~10 comments
    + positive feedback
    + suggestion to remove the pattern editor and to rename some captions
    + one preference for the three-column layout
 
    + next: implement it :-)  probably again good for a GSoC task
 
* Draw problems (Stuart)
 
    + might be interesting to have a survey about what the users actually use Draw for (Tomaž)
        + Heiko will have a look / think this through
