**Attendees (write your name):**

- Pedro, Szymon, Gabriel, Andras, Michael, Gökay, Nicolas, Gulsah, Kendy, Ezinne, Raul, Skyler, Rashesh, Aron, Andras

## Gabriel (1&1)

- 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
  - Kendy: Please ping Ashod (via email) if necessary
    - but not necessary ATM it seems

  - Gabriel: took a closer look but still didn’t push
    - Still some cases to go over
    - How will client react when close http header is sent
    - PR: Probably will be sent today
    - Michael: Needs to be tested with our http proxy
      - ./wsd/ProxyProtocol.hpp, ./wsd/ProxyProtocol.cpp – worth checking.

  - Maybe someone else from our side will start to contribute 🙂 on the front-end
  - [add 'Connection: close' header to http responses. by gmasei11 · Pull Request #5225 · CollaboraOnline/online · GitHub](https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/pull/5225)
  - We plan to release mini upgrade today

## Release schedule (Gokay)

- CODE new minor release planned for tomorrow
  - We were holding new fetures pushes to master
  - We can now safely start to push them

**Nextcloud bits (Raul)**

```
* Local editing feature is almost done
  * Waiting for review
  * Pending: File does not get sync when it gets open (probably some work to be done in the desktop side client ?)
    * Michael: Maybe we could pass timestamp when we are handing over the url
    * Should we allow this in all files (including things like PDF)
  * Public NC survey on Collabora Online plus NC integration and other Nextcloudy things → the results will be probably published soon
* 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 convert-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.

```
