Where to start?

I expect to complete my "Building on Windows" project in the next day or so, by documenting the results in https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7 That means it is time to pick another project. Any suggestions? Here is a brief resume:

Build without tests?

I am currently building a debug version of AOO, including using --enable-dbgutil. I lost a few hours overnight because it did a test that triggered an assertion dialog, and waited for me to wake up and click "No" to continue. I would prefer to separate building and the tests that are normally
