      Thorsten, Jan-Marek

    + mend Android tinderbox (Christian)
      [ has build failures, but is back ]

      [ not run yet ]
    + add screenshot builder to basic build stats (Christian)
      [ set it up on the build-bot that was Kendy’s no results yet ]

* Release Engineering update (Christian)
    + 6.1.4 RC1 status
      + tagged yesterday, uneventful – collecting builds to up-load 
    + 6.2 Beta 2 slot (?)
      + any requests for this – else skip it.
      + are daily builds sufficient for Notebookbar testing ?
      + Andreas K proposed to have a B2 (Xisco)
         + Notebookbar enabled in B1 already
         + not particularly worried about having one (Heiko)
      => no beta 2 planned.
         + can request next monday if big changes.
    + 6.2 RC 1 – Dec 17th
      + Late Features ?
         + donation infobar (Heiko)
            + https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/63883/
            + terminology in discussion, review pending
            + agreement to have this – 90 days alternation with get-involved.
            + how do we label / approach the people.
            + an option to turn it off ? (Michael W)
               + yes → lots of ways to do that (Heiko)
               + prefer to have this as a compile time option (Michael M)
            => merge it.
         + red-lining paragraph attribute re-work (Michael S)
                - trying to aim for UI freeze on Dec 17 for switching the default
            + hoping to finish a few 10’s of patches to get interactive editing
              bits into a state where basic things work.
            + will be some more complex bits to do after that.
            + autoformat pieces – makes splitting paragraphs harder.
         + showstopper for Notebookbar (Heiko)
            + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103226
            + Kshitij’s patch was reverted – seems like a show-stopper.
            + a problem with toolbars that pop-up or not
            + marketing people are doing work, and disappointment is great.
            + MikeK may be looking in his spare time (Caolan)
               + patch at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/64256/
    + Remotes
    + Android viewer
 + Online

* Base / Firebird migration assistant (Xisco)
    + was experimental in 6.1 – now it’s on in 6.2
    + should it be on by default ?
    + also triggers the conversion dialog when a macro is run (Christian)
        + this breaks a number of external projects:
          https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121599 
        + rather important (Drew)
    + why don’t we make it experimental still in 6.2 ? (Miklos)
        + so more time to fix in master.
    + not convinced it is ready without a code update (Drew)
    + will we have it in another six months if experimental again ? (Xisco)
        + if not on in master – no test coverage, so good to have on (Thorsten)
        + don’t think it’s a bad thing on master (Drew) 
           + if the issue on when it prompts to start the conversion
             then could have it on in 6.2
           + waiting for someone to take an interest here (Michael M)
    => fwd port patch so it’s experimental again in 6.2 (Xisco)
