   * Terminology modifications to Paste Special format 
     http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Design-f1935996.html
       + we have eg. calc8 as a format presented to user here.
             + updated the strings here. hopefully easier to understand

   * Ctrl/cmd+Tab & shift+ctrl/cmd+tab introduced for customization
     and assigned to next/prev sheet in Calc (wip)
      + good; be careful of tab/shift-tab for focus/a11y (Michael)

   * tdf#116695 Make Elementary the default on Gnome
     patch merged to see if “gnome” works as DE
      + discussion ongoing in the bug.
      + think Sifr better than Elementary (Cloph)
          + also think Colibre would be better on more platforms.
               + better choice (Heiko)
                   + but want to keep Breeze on KDE.
      + best to get someone to test it rather than pushing to master (Michael)
      + why not use Colibre on GNOME ? (Michael)
          + important to use what we have (Heiko)
              + lets pick the best, and use that (Michael)
      + UX team want Elementary for GNOME → do that.

* Crash Reporting (Caolan)
    + 6(+0) import failure, 3(+0) export failures
    + 25 (-3, +20) coverity issues
    + Google / ossfuzz:
        + wheels have fallen off the wagon wrt integer overflows
          and 32bit rect/point/etc, 28+
        + change to 32bit on all platforms (used to be 64bit on 64bit)
        + will switch to 64bit on all platforms instead to avoid this (Stephan)
        + lots of noise from this
    + forcepoint round 6, still not complete.
        + reviews of backports much appreciated.

    + quite surprised in 5.4.6.2 – numbers of crashes are low in last week
          + 5.4.x continues to go down
    + fix for SetUpdateMode pending (Michael)

* GSoC Application (Thorsten, Heiko)
   + 42 final applications – deadline is over, please review!
      + somewhat down on previous years; similar to other projects.
   + 16+ mentors
   + 10-15 interested students discussing on ML.
   + A bit confused here – no E-mail (Michael)
      + can admins assign mentors based on project ownership in wiki ?
      + do we push the “I want to mentor this student” button ? (Miklos)
          + do this only for good proposals (Heiko)
             + would be good to mail people to push button (Miklos)
      + slot allocation deadline ~4 days from now (Miklos)
       + do we have a plan for slots to request ?
       + previously a min & max required.
   + need someone with expertise to check the submissions (Heiko)
       + one of the admins: Thorsten/Markus/Heiko would be good (Michael)
            + lots of cruft in there still – only 1-2 Androids possible
            + useful to have a spreadsheet for ranking if possible with
              links for the proposals.
            + important to make sure promising students ‘have a mentor’
AI:    + poke admins / come up with this ~4 days to slot count (Heiko)
   + quite a number of ignored proposals : is there rational ? (Miklos)
       + not me who set that so (Heiko)
       + seems Markus did – see the ‘Ingored’ tab at the top (Michael)
