* l10n (Sophie)
    + work is ongoing

* Baseline / gcc discussion (Stephan)
    + two options – either drop 32bits – or use updated developer toolset
    + official RHEL builds, but only some CentOS builds for 32bit.
AI:     + wanted to check the CentOS builds tools out (Christian)
    => switch to latest build tools if they compile as/when possible for 6.2
    + latest MS compiler has way better C++11 * 17 support
        + that made gcc the worst C++ wise.
    + if we do this we should restrict ourselves to the latest VS 2017 version
        + have a patch to check this during configure in gerrit
        + then whomever uses an older compiler would need to update.
        + can we do this once rather than repeatedly ? (Michael)
            + yes, latest builds have most of C++2017 (Stephan)

* Go back to weekly meeting on the same day (Heiko)
    + data is: https://demo.eu.collaboraonline.com/tdf/index.php/f/12850
        since June over 11 weeks we have 11.5 participants in average 
        on Thursday vs. 8 on Wednesday (SD 2.3/1.4) 
        at least 3 more on Thursday afternoon.
           + do we know who they are ? (Michael)
                + do we get new people or just loose them.
    + prefer to move it back to a single day – Thur (Stephan, Heiko, Sophie)
       + last week Kendy preferred Thur (Heiko)
    + anyone in favor of Wednesdays ?
       + only good if people are different on Wed (Cloph, Sophie, Michael)
         + not worth having wed.
    + don’t care much – like the same day each week (Michael S)
       + easier to remember.
    => no-one here on Wed. that wants Wednesday.
    => propose switching back to Thur – from next week & await screaming.
       + some would be persuaded by yet better data showing different people.
