* Joel introduction / welcome
        + joined a couple of months ago
        + mostly doing trigaing
        + some coding fixes

* emotive plea for more easy-hacks (Andras)
        + lots of students / volunteers chewing through the easy hacks
        + need more Easy Hacks particularly tasks:
                + that can take a few weeks for new hackers.
                + not trivial cleanup (only useful to learn review process)
                + more substantial / interesting: three week bits.
        + new volunteers: could they learn by triaging.

* UI / design update (Astron)
        + gradient-fill for cells:
                + review: better for whole areas rather than cells
                + interoperability issues ?
        + borders query:
                + we have to pick sensible default options / settings

        + options reduction ongoing interest
AI:     + new git repository needed for UI stuff 'original-artwork' (Norbert)

* QA update (Joel)
        + immature interaction styles in bugzilla
                + encourage people to interact positively
                + don't just ask to reproduce on latest
                  ver. unless v. old
        + more complication wrt. when to 'close' bugs ...
                + only developers should close it resolved->fixed
                        + unless QA can resolve exactly when.
                + use resolved->worksforme instead.
        + do we close a bug when it's fixed on master or all branches ?
                + some things get fixed but related to separate bugs
                + the bug-bot adds helpful comments when it's cherry-picked
                + prefer fixed when fixed on master (Kendy)
                + tracker bug dependencies different (Lionel)
                        + crossed out only when it's fixed in that branch
                + problem remembering coming back to close it later (Norbert)
        + is it ok to close worksforme if it works on master ?
                + if not so serious for back-porting, ok (Lionel)
                + worth having the latest stable branch in parallel
                  not worth going back further for worksforme
                + what proportion are 'worksforme' ? (Kendy)
                        + rougly:
                                + 50% => needinfo
                                + 25% workforme
                                + 25% => developers
        + some annoying bugs with calc (Rainer)
                + really helps to have actual documents etc. (Kohei)
                + eg. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54498
                + many are duplicates: moggi addressing the core issue
                  on an overheating laptop.
        + begging for more triage volunteers:
                + once we catch-up all is good; but we're so far behind.
                + catch-up 10x bugs per week but a 1300 backlog
                        + 20-30 new per day.
                        + lots of user-appreciation.
**              + http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugTriage          **
        + need help confirming some 2011 bugs:

                + hard to triage / complex bugs.
        + should we have a(nother) bug-hunting party (Fridrich?)

        + HardHacks:
AI:             + get some more (Joel)
                + need constant re-filling to five open (Stephan)
