    * Last week's design session (Heiko/Jay)
     
        + Area Tab - https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94551
          https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gf7wqYszXnbrbzbyNlLKbJelMb20ssuimxfszcHP_wM/edit?usp=sharing
     
        + talked about the Area properties (Heiko)
             + unfortunately did not finish in time yet (Heiko)
             + more mockups there (Heiko)
        + included color widget (Heiko)
        + some ideas harder to implement (Heiko)
        + bitmap background handling not convenient (Heiko)
        + but overall the proposal nearly finished (Heiko)
            + should publish that when done (Heiko)
                + proved useful with the print dialog (Heiko)
     
    * Dedicated Design team blog (Heiko)
     
        + included in the official LibreOffice blog, or better to have a design-only one? (Heiko)
        + TDF-infra OK with the idea of design.libreoffice.org (Jay)
            + sounds good (Kendy)
            + initially ~3 people + inclusive for others (Jay)
        + conclusion: Jay will talk to the tdf infra guys to set that up
     
    * Bug discussions
     
        + nothing this week
     
    * Help updating (Kendy)
     
        + new release 3.1.3 on Monday (Kendy)
            + but more fixes in the meantime again :-) (Jay)
        + help-related meta bugs:
            + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94016
            + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93580
        + wikihelp? (Jay)
            + help proposal
              https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MULCsm8gD-QPv-W1LbHBynnY0eD16Q6uXsrzpgfJdvQ/edit?usp=sharing
                + idea to use xml editor (Kendy)
                + steps needed:
                    + hooks on help.libreoffice.org redirecting to editable page
                    + per-user session - own git checkout
                    + some way of editing - either the xml help or the xml <-> html mapping
                    + commit creation in the git + push to gerrit
                + overall - like the idea to have some infra on top of the current help,
                  easier than the entire editable wiki (Kendy)
     
    * Icon Updates / Issues (Jay)

    * START CENTER: Set new open remote file icon (Jay)
     
        + https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/19178
            + a comment there: "maybe the Open Remote button should be merged with the Open button,
              make it a split button"?
            + this is actually orthogonal to the icon (Kendy)
                + let's merge the icon if people happy with the look (Kendy)
                + it should be pushed (Stuart)
            + the split button was considered during the original design of the feature, but decided to
              have a separate button to make the feature more visible (Jay/Kendy)
        + should the button change from "Open Remote File" to "Remote Files"? (Heiko)
            + Agree (Stuart, Adolfo, Jay, Tomaz)
