   + tests that failed more than twice in last seven days:

      3 CppunitTest_xmlsecurity_signing		gerrit_windows
      5 CppunitTest_sd_export_ooxml2		gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
     61 Killed by the kill-wrapper		gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
   + much less Windows problems
   + there was a clash: UITest vs code change at the same time, both verified by Jenkins on its own


  + Some asserts in UItests don’t fail, abort instead ( Xisco )
	- https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/103993
     + AI: will take a look later (Stephan)

  + Android has now 2 workers
     + problem with running out of disk space, twice, now fixed
     + already caught real problems pre-commit

* l10n (Sophie)
  + working is ongoing

* Graphics architecture (Thorsten)
  * https://pad.documentfoundation.org/p/ESC_graphics_architecture
  * skia / vulkan metabug: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129062
      + 16 (-1) open bugs, 124 total (+0)

* LibreOffice Conference will be Online (Sophie)
  + some people wondered if it is possible to pre-record the talk?
    - possible, but not a requirement
  + need to decide how to handle the next week, “during” the conference (Miklos)
    + works for me (Cloph)
    + usual time slot, but unusual agenda (Thorsten)
      + taking questions from the audience
      + share plans / what’s cooking section / longer-term directions

* Decide on what to do with the translation/gerrit of online.git (Thorsten)
  + 1 patch from non-Collabora, should be merged at some stage
  + would not be fair to leave online.git open but nobody really care
    + to not disappoint contributors
  + other proposal: github mirror, mirrors gerrit, could mirror CollaboraOnline’s online repo
  + to be discussed, no decision is needed right now
  + Andras ensures that no translation work will be lost (Miklos)
  + ESC is the right place to discuss development & translation (Thorsten)
    + prefer that it’s discussed here and not in the board
    + will TDF continue the development of LOOL? (Heiko)
    + right now there is no parallel development in gerrit (Thorsten)
    + who wants to continue LOOL? (Heiko)
      + need to discuss that, in public (Thorsten)
      + having opinion is free, but doers should decide
      + can’t say “TDF should do this&that” but then nobody doing anything
      + for the moment, on the table, needs more discussion, also perhaps next week
      + personal take: hate pointless forking

* QA update (Xisco)

            + if you revert that, you probably loose encryption functionality (Thorsten)
