* GSoC 2020 (Ilmari)
    + This week the evaluations!!!
        + If you are a mentor and didn't send your review yet, please do today
    + Projects announced: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2020/05/05/9769/
    + June 1, 2020 - August 24, 2020: Students work on their projects
    + 6 projects accepted
    + the game is on, students are reporting more or less regularly
      + remind your students if it's not happening
    + 1st evaluation: June 29, 2020 - July 3, 2020 (this week)
    + no emergency observed so far
    + feature branch vs gerrit changes (Thorsten)
      + a combination of these works great
      + push once a day to the branch, but get the changes into master soon

* Virtual happening around conference time
    + board members suggested a virtual hackfest
    + after much soul-searching, Ilmari, Xisco and Christian came to the
      conclusion that it would not be up to the standard we have
      traditionally had for hackfests
    + what is special about hackfests, with potential for attracting new
      contributors? physical presence
    + what is special about a virtual hackfest? nothing - just another edition
      of what we do every day anyway
    + counter-proposal: questions & answers session in Jitsi regarding
      contributing
    + people send questions in advance
    + in the live event, only have slots for the topics which received
      questions (to avoid having people on standby for no reason)
    + encourage the people sending questions to join the session to ask further
      questions
    + allow random people to join and ask stuff related to the topic slots, but
      with no guarantee of real-time response (can send answers later)
    + Jitsi allows demos via screen sharing
    + who wants to join the panel of experts? don't have to present the answers
      live, if it's too much trouble
    + should we run this before or after the conference?
    + some specific pitch sounds like a good idea (Thorsten)
    + maybe some small event in Hamburk (Thorsten)
    + how long it should be? If ~hour, could be even part of the
      conference? (Kendy)
    + or something like the C++ training that were done previously? (Thorsten)
        + further questions after the sessions (Thorsten)
        + people in the talk would need to digest - and would be interested more
          in a day or two (Thorsten)
        + kind of an interactive hands-on (Ilmari)
