* Commit Access

* Over-frequent cosmetic micro-commits (Kendy)
    + recently lots of very small cleanups – commit by commit;
      change of 1 line, eg. changing comments from a URL → an URL
    + suggest bundling them into similar chunks
    + perhaps an over-reaction to a request to split them (Michael S)
    + perhaps but a good middle ground here (Kendy)
    + is there an issue apart from the stats around it ? (Heiko)
        + not really the stats (Kendy)
            + looking at git logs, -p very noisy & cluttered.
        + not a general topic then – rather specific (Heiko)
    => talk to the individual (Kendy)

* l10n (Sophie)
   + soon we’ll have a weblate test available
   + request for more Armenian locales to be added
   + will use an additional repo for the weblate working area (Christian)
      + it relies on having all translations in the repo
      + can use the same process as before.
      + will decide finally after the test anyway (Sophie)

* Renaming kde5 VCL plugin to kf5 - tdf#125922 (Michael W)
    + Just as the gtk3 plugin isn't named GNOME, rename kde5 to kf5, as it is
      based on the KDE frameworks 5 libraries and used by other OSs too.
    + also renames detected desktop from kde5 to plasma5
    + most code already moved from kde5 to qt5
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125922
    + Patch: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/75313/
      diff: +255, -406 (drops ~100 lines unused code – can be separated)
    + bike-shedding, but a minor issue (Jan-Marek)
       + not much reason not to rename it.
    + makes-work for packagers I guess (Michael)
       + need work for the new version anyway (Jan-Marek)
       + renaming the option
       + may impact the release config, and some autogen.inputs
       => people need to update their configs
       => will add an alias configure switch (Jan-Marek)
    => apply the renaming patch.

* Firebird Migration page (Xisco)
   + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/HowTo/MigrateFromHSQLDB
   + added a link to the wiki page, but it is empty…
   + Drew (IIRC) had a plan for that (Michael)

* Android / NDK16 (Kendy)
   + have a small patch that enables NDK-19, but can’t test with NDK16
   + is it necessary to stay with that ? or is it ok to update to NDK19
   + and assume that others will adapt.
   + fine to bump to NDK19 (Christian)
   + needed for a new feature ? (Jmux)
       + Android Studio can manage the NDK for you now (Kendy)
          + unfortunately, it just updated to NDK20 – which breaks everything
          + using something more modern is better, some bug-fixes etc.
          + not a huge necessity, but would like to
            avoid testing with older NDKs
       + to NDK19 – is a small patch, few problems (Kendy)
          + NDK20 – has serious issues, grim compiler errors etc.
   => upgrade it to NDK19.
