     21 Killed by the kill-wrapper                gerrit_linux_clang_dbgutil
   + this week was a normal week, let's say
   + some improvements to the build stats
     + Windows / macOS is the bottleneck
   + no cluster of tests that fails specifically, that's good

  + kill-wrapper for macOS? (Stephan)
    + have lode patches available, could push them, but:
        + location of kill-wrapper executable changes also for Linux, Jenkins needs
          to adapt
        + prints way less information on macOS than on Linux
          + but at least prints which processes are still running
    + gerrit change: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/lode/+/143788 "Extend kill-wrapper to also run on macOS"
      + AI: review & submit this when happy with the result (Cloph)

* FOSDEM 2023 (Xisco)
  + Italo is putting together a schedule

  + If you are attending, add yourself to https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Events/2023/FOSDEM

  + Deadline will be specified in the email (for voting)

* Update Android min NDK version to 23.x? (Michael W.)
    + and switch Jenkins e.g. to e.g. NDK 23.2.8568313
    + https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2023-January/089871.html
    + gerrit change: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/146118
AI: install newer NDK on Jenkins (Cloph)
    + do we publish any daily builds for Android? (Hossein)
      + we just disabled them when they were not published on the app store
    + NDK 25 will be the next LTS version? (Cloph)
      + would suggest going to 25 directly
      + 24 removed support for API level 16,17, & 18, i.e. minimum supported version would be KitKat / 19
    + updated an fdroid version recently (Michael W)
      + https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/12380
    + please update /README.md accordingly (Miklos)
      + will do (Michael W)

* Dead code removal (Stephan)
    + See recent mailing list thread:
        + AIX (incl. its Linux 32-bit PowerPC C++ UNO bridge)
        + 32-bit s390 (incl. its Linux C++ UNO bridge)
        + Solaris 32-bit x86 and SPARC C++ UNO bridges
            + but leave Solaris support available for OpenIndiana downstream
  => no objections (all)
