    + 6.2.1 rc1 status
      + tagged, up on mirrors but not made public yet.
      + rc2: Feb 19 – next week; as planned.
    + 6.1.6 rc1: April 9
      + a bit further out.
    + 6.3 release schedule updated in the wiki
      + early April we have the 1st Alpha.
    + Remotes
    + Android viewer
      + stuck on this during testing … release this week.
      + recently started on Online / iOS approach (Kendy)
         + committing bits, noticed that currently using 14 as min SDK ver.
         + this is very low; anything with an SDK14 device – can’t run it.
         + even for NDK need Android 16 (Christian)
         + is it ok to bump it to 21 eg. ? (Kendy)
            + 16 would be ok – already there (Christian)
               + 16 is ok.
         + committing to master, hope we don’t break normal build
         + Q for GSOC (Thorsten)
            + long-term maintain in parallel ?
            + would like to kill Fennec / Java monster (Michael)
            + is it in a state where GSOC can work ? (Thorsten)
               + asked student to talk to Gulsha (Michael)
            + ATM – depends how far we get with iOS version (Kendy)
               + lets see next ESC.
               + not worth pointing at the old code, lacks features
            + if moving too fast – perhaps not GSOC at it ? (Christian)
               + de-couples mobile-UI from mobile quite nicely (Kendy)
                 + easier for students to develop.
                 + new approach, Android Studio is much nicer.
        + does anyone feel particularly strongly wrt. Java ver ? (Thorsten)
           + if didn’t have Moz gecko stuff – rather stick with Android (Cloph)
              + fear is a version that doesn’t follow
                Android semantics / usability
           + Tomaz & Miklos co-mentored Mert last year (Miklos)
              + everyone happy to see this.
