- Some segmentation fault issues on document conversion
  - Still investigating

- Really good experience 🙂
- Probably will be back with more contributions
- Found some crashes (more than the previous version) (most of them related to conversion)
  - Still investigating and trying to find out possible fix
  - It seem there are some core related crashes
  - Reduce differences between our versions and community
  - Minor upgrade → then we will see if the crashes persist

- Issue: Collabora Online not sending close (it closes by in the response does not send close)
  - Our proxy fails. Idea: adding close to the connection header

## Release schedule (Gokay)

**Nextcloud bits (Raul)**

```
* Working on dropping an .ini file in top-level Nextcloud sync folders so that the desktop client can interact with locking / desktop / collaborative editing as the user chooses
  * Tor working to read / interpret this and tweak the UI to better integrate
  * some potential issues getting authentication tokens for LibreOffice – so deferring this ot the next step.
  * Julius talking to client team about auth issues.
  * https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/issues/4880
* Today new richdocuments release for NC 22
* **Pending conver-to tokens:**

    * https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/issues/5076
    * Ticket on Nextcloud: https://github.com/nextcloud/richdocuments/issues/2169
* Pedro: Dark mode affecting when it shouldn’t
  * Currently dark mode is disabled in CO (development happening in feature/dark-mode branch )
  * https://github.com/nextcloud/richdocuments/blob/2c61f2eadd51653c778d866b1740aac43ae9c9ac/src/helpers/coolParameters.js#L47-L79
    * Julius needs to look at this in richdocuments
      * needs two fixes: one for the most recent version
      * plus one for previous versions.
    * Perhaps cut out the dark-mode completely since older richdocuments have problems there.

```
