Organization
* How to work with both the design team and end users to improve LibreOffice UI/UX (Eric Ficheux)
+ Follows UX improvement requests from a user survey in Nantes
+ 5000 users asked a couple of open questions online
+ 75% are fine with LibO
+ First results indicate design relevant issues regarding printer setup and bullets/numbering
+ Goal is to study, make proposals and implement
+ happy to get the results and to help in analyzing (Heiko)
* Major release update
+ Q1/18 - next steps?
+ Tender for design; Budget?
+ will ask the tdf team next Monday (Heiko)
+ New branding needed (KJ)
+ Coordinating work with Marketing team (maybe some stuff for conference?) (KJ)
+ we could have started with releasing of 5.0 (Jay)
+ we should hire an experience designer > have a tender (Jay, Heiko)
* Custom Shapes
+ Had a kick-off today
+ http://pad.documentfoundation.org/p/UX-CustomShapes
GSoC projects
* Ideas do not have code pointers, making things harder for new gsoc students
* Discussion on Customisation dialog (Akshay)
* Akshay will do the special character project mentored by Samuel
+ limited scope without OCR part, which would be very pity as OCR would be a killer feature
+ maybe completed by another project

Tickets
* New default bullets
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106507
+ Not a fan as presented (Stuart c4)
+ Better we align the bullet/numbering workflow/dialog to what has been done with area fill style
meaning presets, show properties on selection, ability to add own presets... (Heiko c7)
+ Users actually requested the shown dash (Eric)
+ Looking forward to see the design (Jay)
* Color picker
+ New default color palette https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87538
+ no of rows
+ 8 rows http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=131473 (Heiko)
+ 9 rows http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=131574 (Jay)
+ don't like scrolling in that dialog, so rather 9 than 8 rows (opinion Cor)
+ survey runs, results indicate equal acceptance of v2 and v3
+ lets have a talk during the week with Thibaut (Jay)
+ different number of rows based on OS or DE
+ https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106458
+ was a GSoC project two years ago, maybe kendy knows (Samuel)
