     23 Killed by the kill-wrapper                gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
    + this week was OK (Cloph)
    + had 1 failing macOS builder
    + Windows bots now disable themselves, which is better than nothing
    + High number of builds that are aborted
      + not Linux only, also macOS
      + might have an idea (Caolan)
        + used gerrit to "bisect" a hang
        + some 12 patch sets can be attributed to that
        + let's revisit next week
    + macOS timeouts, is that not managed by kill-wrapper, correct? (Stephan)
      + that's correct (Cloph)
      + so no useful logs (Stephan)

* DPI/scaling-related test failures on Windows (Ilmari)
  + embeddedobj https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2022-November/089606.html
  + long chart labels https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2022-November/089607.html
  + can we do something in CI to prevent these types of problems slipping in?
    + adjust DPI scaling automatically? (Ilmari)
    + could force DPI to be 96? (Miklos)
      + Jenkins builders have no display (Cloph)
      + couldn't force a hidpi environment in the first place
  + what we already have (Ilmari)
    + more tolerance can be added
      + but with larger differences that will still fail (Hossein)
    + you can also return early in tests if DPI is not the default (Miklos)
      + IsDefaultDPI() can do that
  + if we have a way to let a Windows VM show up as hidpi, that could be done (Cloph)

* FOSDEM 2023 (Xisco)
  + 11th December is the deadline to submit talks:
  + submissions via pentabarf:  https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM23
  + please submit your talks (if you're coming) in 2 weeks
  + Link to blog post:

* What’s cooking (Miklos)
    + testcase refactors (Xisco)
      + mostly done by now
    + macOS dark mode is now in master (Caolan)
      + much appreciated by macOS users in the design channel(s)
    + Writer layout xml dump improvement (Miklos)
      + content inside paragraphs was based on a11y API, decoupled now
      + handles e.g. ruby portions
    + Kevin has improvements around RTL text PDF import into Draw (Hossein)
      + testing patches left & right
