Meeting: 2023-01-30 @ 0900h EST5EDT

Video/Audio: https://bbb.linuxfoundation.org/room/adm-alk-1uu-7fu

IRC: #glibc on OFTC.

Review new patches and restart review at the top.

 * State NEW delegate NOBODY 259 patches.
 * Carlos' SLI is at 163 days.
 * Release blockers?
  * Discussed "Account for octal marker in %#o format" as a release blocker.
  * Added to the blocker list.
 * The C90 header compatibility fix is not a blocker.
  * Siddhesh posted a patch.
  * "cdefs: Limit definition of fortification macros"
   * Will need backporting to 2.34.
 * Discussed Gento Hardened gcc11 which may break larger parts of the glibc testsuite. Reports submitted look much better with gcc12 hardened.
  * Carlos discussed his concern regarding the gentoo results. Looks much better now.
  * Discussed "Make stdlib/testmb compile when _FORTIFY_SOURCE is not predefined 2" as a solution to one of the Gentoo test results issues with the hardened toolchain.
   * Push after 2.38 opens.
 * Discussed "Use 64-bit time_t interfaces in strftime and strptime (bug 30053)" as something to fix.
  * Not a blocker, but can be backported (ABI neutral).
  * Should be reviewed for 2.38 and then backported.
 * One blocker left for 2.37.
 * Discussed backports from 2.38 to 2.37 and what to do about backporting strings with translations.
  * Considered this a difficult problem that would involve fruther thought regarding the cost of backporting translations along with fixes.

Cheers,
Carlos.
