* Commit Access
  + None

* Developer Certification (Stephan/Kendy/Thorsten/László)
  + resting since: 18 weeks (limit: 20 weeks)

* Jenkins / CI update (Cloph)
  + Missing Cloph

* l10n (Sophie)
   + no updates

* What’s cooking (Miklos)
  + Working on a minimal set of out of order undo operations (Miklos)
    + e.g. typing in parallel in two independent paragraphs

* Budget 2022 (Xisco)
    + https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Budget2022
    + ideas are welcome till the end of the year
    + earlier deadline? (Thorsten)
      + take list if ideas with estimates by end Nov
      + and have 2 weeks for the vote
    + how to find reviewers for good ideas? (Miklos)
      + it's just copied from the wiki page (Thorsten)
    + how to get estimations for your ideas? (Heiko)
      + you would need 10 people to estimate all the ideas (Thorsten)
      + there is no single person who can estimate all the ideas
      + also not sure we have the time this year to kick that off
    + wanted to ask something similar (Kendy)
      + a real estimation is 10 hours easily, so it's quite expensive
    + see this as a failure pattern: mar installer (Heiko)
      + wanted: small updates
      + quite some heavy-lifting was done
      + end-user didn't benefit much
    + agree there is a problem (Thorsten)
      + hiring somebody may not be a good fix, if that person is needed only once a year
      + public sector has similar problems, sometimes nobody bids for a tender
        + the way out there: be more agile, to allow iterations
        + fundamental issue: waterfall approach
    + want to steer development (Heiko)
      + decide what ideas are good and not
      + perhaps you want some kind of project manager (Kendy)
      + looking for a "Kendy" for 1 day to estimate things :-)
        + this is quite hard, as Thorsten said
        + more agile approach would be rather helpful
        + fix cost is very hard to fix after the fact, once the details are set in stone
    + good to discuss it outside the ESC call (Kendy, Thorsten)
      + preferably board-discuss@
