https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Gsoc/Ideas
* Release Engineering update (Cloph)
+ 4.3.7 RC1 status April 13th
+ not tagged yet, network issues,
a few patches left to be reviewed, running a
build to verify them.
+ expect the tag at 8-9pm European time.
+ the last supported release.
+ can we fast-track RC2 ? (Bjoern)
AI: + come up with a new 4.3.7 RC2 plan (Cloph)
+ 4.4.3
+ early next week, tag for RC1
+ planned for the next Wed.
+ 5.0.0 - 1st Alpha release - April 13th
+ week after 4.3.7
+ marketing supports this
+ UX freeze is not until June 15th ...
+ Windows 64 bit update ?
+ played locally; working fine - need to push to the
VM server, should be submitting results Friday.
+ Matus added mergelib builds for Windows.
AI: + test & turn that on by default for the 5.0 Alpha (Cloph)
+ what operating systems should be supported by
the official releases ? (Michael S)
+ require at least Vista for 64bit Windows
+ XP we have a separate file & folder picker foo.
+ leave XP as 32bit Windows baseline.
AI: + add it to the prototype release notes (Michael S)
=> decided.
+ Android & iOS Remote
+ new version to the production channel, fixing a
couple of nullptr exceptions seen in the play crashreporter.
* Crashtest update (Caolán)
+ import ~11 issues, mostly duplicates.
+ started looking at low-hanging fruit in export (Caolan)
+ asan test run results announced
+ caolan already fixed 1 of 2x issues found (Markus)
+ import crash investigation (Stephan)
+ those not marked as through disposed - of those
remaining - running them locally on asan+ubsan
doesn't produce any problems either.
+ not sure how useful the data is
+ related to high load on the machine (Markus)
+ import.txt - false positives due to over-high load on machine.
+ export.txt - all normal issues - already imported the file (Markus)
+ if an export one is not reproducible - mail markus &
he'll test on the server.
+ hard to debug / work on how to test this stuff (Stephan)
+ hard to know how to reproduce this.
+ having the URL to the bug doc would help ? (Michael)
+ having a link to the captured output ? (Stephan)
+ randomly looked at the mail, hard to make sense of it.
+ links to those which produced asan error messages.
+ ubsan will follow next week
+ lower load will fix false positives mostly.

+ implementationError (bug in initial implementation of new feature)
=> gives a better understanding of where they came from ?
