    + customization of MOD3 possible on macOS; symbol correctly assigned 
        and backported to 6.0
      + in the past mod3 and mod2 merged
      + clear formatting, ctrl-M on OS/X looked like alt-m
      + wasn’t possible to configure, and visualized wrong; now fixed.

    + working on Notebookbars; guideline for QA/design added
      https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/ToolBar
      + explaining what it means, if users want new tabs – do we accept ?
         + added guidelines to the wiki.
  
    + seeking a mentor for introducing chart styles tdf#62925
      + volunteer with expertise in C++, FSFE Argentina
      + plan is to have provide a dialog/workflow to apply all
        style properties to newly created and existing charts,
        ideally in Calc and Writer
      + lots of old tickets asking for this sort of thing.
      + sounds good, suggested to find a mentor.
      + chart2 code is not entirely obvious (Michael)
         + best to ask questions on IRC.

    + nested character styles tdf#115311
      + multi-selection in char style list; introduced ideally together with
        merging paragraph and char style into one deck plus a style inspector
        that shows priority of nested styles
      + concept – char style list should have a multi-selection

    + elementary icon theme becomes a burden so we might change
      the gnome default again towards Breeze then
      + want to present the Notebookbar in a clean way
      + default set of icons shown should be consistent.
      + Unity + GNOME(?) had Tango in the past now Elementary -> Breeze

       + 7-8 left open, mostly OOM etc.
    + Someone filed 2 CVEs from this – for issues found/fixed months ago
       + don’t know who is filing them.
       + would be nice to find out who filed them to discuss that with them.
         + likely to affect AOO too, but no response there.
         + mailed them the two reproducers
