Issues with generic target 3.2.1

Other items

• OOo 3.2.1 related: A couple of CWS have been approved by QA the past days. CWS ooo321l10n4 is expected to get approval today. RC1 round/build (OOO320m17) is expected to start tomorrow
• Stefan Weigel proposed Issue 111205 as stopper for the 3.2.1 release. Unfortunately the corresponding patch is not attached to an issue and the developer involved is out of office this week. So there's no chance to integrate the 'patch' into RC1. Martin pointed out "We already discussed this issue in the issue itself and we already had it nominated on the mailinglist some days ago. As Ocke (oj) and Marc (msc_sun) already told, the fix is complex and there is a high risk of breaking things. oj himself clearly stated to me that it sounds far to risky to put such a change into 3.2.1 release this late. Thats the main reason why I rejected it on the mailing list already. At the same time I asked oj to care for a fix on the 3.3 code line in the near future. Indeed it looks like he picked up that ball instantly and continued to work on a fix (for 3.3) release. Unfortunately he provided his first findings / patch based on a 3.2.1 CWS. Of course one can assume that this means a 3.2.1 fix is easily possible. But I think it's not. And I still wouldn't like to integrated any changes related into 3.2.1 now based on current informations.". Frank Schoenheit remarked that the patch has a high potential for regressions and that he wouldn't like to integrate it now. Mechtilde asked for more information about the risks to be able to communicate about this issue. Martin mentioned "I think one of the important things here is to continue keeping an eye on this. Means to get the fix into a CWS and to QA that CWS as best as we can. Finally when that is complete, we can integrate it into master code line and more people will get hands on it. All this should happen soon on the 3.3 code line to make sure it gets in there without having regressions related to the fix."
• Martin Hollmichel poined out that the Windows installation set signing process will need far more time in future because the process has changed for this. Therefor he will start to sign a block of ten localizations of wJRE installation sets first (one package for a day). He plans to start with en_US, de, fr, ja, it, es, etc.. Martin Damboldt added that everybody should keep in mind that RC1 bits for Windows will become available in pieces step by step

Other items

• OOO320m16 is expected to be uploaded today
• Some CWS with further 3.2.1 stoppers are in progress and some are already in QA right now. We received last open L10N in time last week and will now create corresponding L10N CWS for verification purpose asap. Depending on when the L10N CWSs is available via ftp, we should have all at hand for doing the final 3.2.1 build.
• Roughly some time next week we should be able to start the final master build than. This would bring us to a Release Candidate in calender week 19 (10th to 16th May 2010). If l10n CWS don't last too long OOO320m17 is expected to be the first release candidate otherwise we'll have to do an extra round
• Stopper discussion
  • Fridrich Štrba mentioned problems to build the MySQL extension by using configure: "The headers/libraries that you download from mysql.com check in headers for widows by a define __WIN__ which is not defined anywhere, so I had to replace all of them by _WIN32 which is a builtin define of the windows compilers. Then running "build --all" in mysqlc and mysqlcpp* fails because the dependencies are not writtent correctly. So, basically, one has to run the whole build in build --all --ignore && build --all. I don't understand why one has to change the extension names in this cycle, while the variables in the source are not changed :) like $sundirname = "Oracle"". build.lst is missing some modules that have to be built before. but I solve it by "make || make || make || make || make" in my build script. Ruediger asked him to file an issue to him

• The old meta Issue 99999 was closed in the meantime.
• For the upcoming 3.2.1 we have now meta Issue 109046 .
• As there is no dependency for a 3.2.1 release, a detailed schedule is not yet available. We will take the time for fixing issues that were denied for 3.2 and new ones.
• 2 stopper are already known: Issue 92147 "no dict DE in Installation Packages" and Issue 109183 "XComponentLoader: XModel as PropertyValue crashes the office".
• There was a request for additional language packs on DEV300 milestones (e.g., for Russian). This needs more space on the mirrors, so this has to be checked first.
• A reminder is wanted to have a UI freeze / branch for translation related changes in extensions as well as in the main Office suite.
• The OOO320 release codeline will be migrated to Mercurial (hg). The next m13 will be based on hg. The current m12 is available in hg but new CWSs on this basis have to be created still in SVN. From m13 on hg can be used.
• Another request was to get information about how to get more localized OOo builds (full install and langpacks). This is answered in Wiki, please have look for the Release Criteria.

Other items

• OOo 3.2.0 RC 4 (OOO320_m11) is currently distributing to the mirror network.
• Volker said that the announcement about the RC 4 was not clear enough, Martin D. will note this and also point Martin H. to this.
• Martin D. suggested a QA approval on February, 1st and Marketing release on 3rd.
• Mechtilde added that we should decided the QA approval in the next meeting and maybe set the marketing release on the 4th.
• Rene mentioned a problem with the Presenter Console extension, so issue 108605 should be fixed for the 3.2 release due to an error with the version number, after a very long discussion the result is that there is no problem because the version number 1.0.2 is correct in the OOO320 codeline, see the chat log for full details.
