Dear all,

Meeting: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/1/ Attending: Elendil (Krlr17), Martin, Jonathan, Marc, Ishann

Elendil reports that the Bug tracking tasks have caused less burn out since there are more people who can help with the work.

Jonthan reports that the Frankfurt event went well. The presence of Kristina from Inkstitch and the availability of the contributors to talk about text support made the event useful. Overall the event was fairly good from a cost perspective. There were organisational challenges with people arriving and leaving at different times but this was to be expected.

A vote has been created for the next event. We're waiting on plc members to vote so we can continue with that work. There is a 14 day window for paying for the hotel so it is timely.

We talked about the 1.4.x contract and what the next steps. Marcin Floryan is helping with the candidate selection steps and will be put into a mailing list with Jonathan. Marc did that task during the meeting.

Martin has been working on PDF support and was contacted by the CTO of the PDF association and will be meeting with them to talk about how to make Inkscape more compilient and consistant with it's PDF output. For example with atomic stroke/fill operations.

Marc hasn't been up to much since the hackfest. Finished the weblate server for translations. It has been recieved quiet well by the translations team so far on the chat, there are decisions about how it should integrate with our current workflow.

Elendil requests that a specific fix for PDF input be fixed for 1.4.1.

Do we have a release date for the 1.4.1? We looked at what vectors might have said in their last meeting, but found nothing related to the release. There are some pending backports that should be merged before we cut the release but we're otherwise ready to go as soon as those tasks are completed or rejected. We reviewed the specific fixes that we would need to bring over.

Ishann contiued with the markers refactoring and will be working on further tests for markers. Martin has rebased his PDF work on top of that.

Thanks to everyone who came to today's meeting
