## Leap

publishing to stage was worked by Adrian/Rudi yesterday. Big thanks!
Max seemed to get Leap 15.3 to the point where builds are imported to
openQA.

lkocman: will work on get-o-o enablement for Leap Micro 5.3 and Leap
15.3 (new design for the get.o.o.org webpage?) maybe clicking Leap will
show up 15.3 (old stable) and 15.4 (stable) or something like that
Q: from yesterday's meeting Public Cloud availability of Leap Micro,
docs for healthcheck service

Leap Micro 5.3 local builds are failing on not being able to find a
compliant worker.
Data from the MicroOS Workshops is there

upstream)
Staging:B glibc 2.36 is WIP, build fails mostly collected, cmake
pending. One bug report created based on Arch's experience: steam games

## Richard (MicroOS) 

BCI-for-Tumbleweed containers are progressing slowly
Richard moving his daily driver to another laptop, using the exercise
as a detailed UX re-evaluation of MicroOS Desktop GNOMEs current status
and hitlist for getting things polished up (lubos can help)

D-Installer is being submitted to factory

## Max

* Leap 15.5 is rolling, snapshot builds, and are being tested in
openQA.
* FactoryCandidates subproject has been enabled for updating Backports
package to Factory version if possible, or new Factory package for
Backports, have a script to submit build succeeded package to Backports
* Extending our tooling for adding corresponding devel project review
on Backports submission is WIP, will also added an additional origin-
reviewers review if the submission is not from Factory
Drop python2* packages completely at the end of devel phase. We keep
the interpret as a compromise as of now. dimstar: even python2 stuff
still in TW

lkocman to setup meeting for the next steps 
Rough idea: announce, keep interpret for some time to allow developer
to rebuild packages, drop it with certain milestone (prior to Beta).
Max: will check how many package still rely on python2 interpret(Alpha
phase)

## Wolfgang (Package Hub), Scott Bahling

sbahling: Still fixing Package Hub 15 SP4. Around 3500 packages missing

plugins packages.
