  + foo.component failures are a huge pain for windows
  + Windows is suffering from the ".component" failures (Cloph)
    + 56% of builds fail with this, really painful
    + is that the problematic commit from the wasm upstraming? (Miklos)
      + probably related (Cloph)
      + not the root cause but triggered the problem (Thorsten)
        + Michael S was looking at that briefly
        + let's revert it if we don't find a solution soon
  + can try to reduce the parallelism on the Windows builders (Cloph)
    + not sure if that will help
  + might be also related to building from scratch all the time (Stephan)
    + devs usually do incremental builds locally
AI: try to revert in a gerrit change and see if it really helps (Cloph)

* l10n (Sophie)
  + master po templates are now reflecting master (Cloph)

* FOSDEM 2022 (Italo)
  + this weekend!
  + lightning talk slot can happen (Thorsten)
    + if you have something cool to show, then send a video link to Thorsten
    + 2 mins of latest news is still OK
    + till Sunday 12:00 UTC to thb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

* What’s cooking (Miklos)
   + LODE improvements (ohallot)
       + 'git clone' of core/ brings full core/ history and is >Gbytes
       + same (and worse) for translations/
         + 12 hours for Olivier
       + can we amend with '--depth=NN' to shorten download times? (OH)
           + easier for dev newbies
           + NN=100 allows reducing the core.git size to <1GB
       + need advise from expert
       + certainly makes sense for submodules (Cloph)
         + less so for core.git if you want to switch branches
      + https://dev-www.libreoffice.org/bundles/ solves the "intrerrupted at 99%" problem (Miklos)
      + translations.git is the real problem: 8GB (Eike)
        + core.git 2.7GB
        + translation updates download took 2 hours the last time tried
      + think it's a mix of problems (Thorsten)
        + for non-EU, github is much faster to clone from
        + in EU, grabbing the tarballs is perhaps the quickest
          + maybe mirror that?
        + maybe lode.git should default to cloning translations.git in a shallow way?
    + would solve this by building in the cloud (Hossein)
      + e.g. github codespace, with visual studio code
      + build is done remotely, but vs code runs locally
      + Good for people with slow connection and slow computers
    + if you stick to the default options, you don't get translations.git (Stephan)
    + would like to make it easy to do a shallow clone of submodules (Olivier)
AI: file a bug / easy hack on this (Olivier)
      + maybe we could make it the default for submodules (Cloph)
        + can we still opt in to get the full history? (Stephan)
          + think so (Miklos)
AI: enable shallow clone for submodules by default (Cloph)
