    + issues with the mentoring scripts
        + got access
        + all but 1 issue fixed
    + follow-up with the guys from SSRLabs, very little response unfortunately
        + might be good to phone them up? (Thorsten)
    + nice overview about how to build LibreOffice with Mike
    + lots of email – replying
    + blog intro

    + when I see a bug that looks easy, add EasyHack – is that OK? (Heiko)
        + ProposedEasyHack was removed in the past (Heiko)
        + how does it work with our scripts? The EasyHack is supposed to have
          code pointers (Kendy)
        + reporters usually were the ~mentors (Miklos)
            + or the person who provided the code pointer (Thorsten)
        + would be good to scan those with NeedDevEval + add the code
          pointers (Thorsten)
            + do we hide the NeedDevEval EasyHack? (Kendy)
               → yes (Thorsten)
            + task for Shinnok: encourage people to provide the code pointers
              or provide them yourself (Thorsten)
