GSoC discussion
* GSoC discussion
* Octave 8.2.0 released
* GUI development (Qt6, terminal widget, ...)


== Previous topics ==
* @jwe's server is now set up as a buildbot worker for buildbot.octave.space (Windows nightlies)
** Worker needs to be started manually on reboot. Other than that it is working.
** Upload is slow. Maybe, skip (building and) uploading the .zip archive. Installer and .7z archive are probably enough.
* Octave 8.1 released
** Does it make sense to make release candidates?
** Release Octave 8.2.0 with a couple of urgent fixes (see below) probably soon.
* Fix for issue with element-wise <code>|</code> and <code>&</code> in <code>if</code> conditions is already pushed to the stable branch.
* Issues when writing to streams while converting output
** @arungiridhar already pushed a fix for streams in binary mode to the stable branch.
** Change default to "no conversion" (i.e., UTF-8) when opening streams with <code>fopen</code> without explicitly specifying an encoding. Matlab also defaults to UTF-8 in newer versions. And this might mitigate the encoding issue (at least with default settings).
* Symbol visibility for Octave libraries causing issues for some Octave packages?
** Change default to disable selective symbol visibility again.
* Internal representation of character arrays in Octave
** @jwe proposed to open a thread on Discourse if we'd like to discuss this.
* GSoC 2023
** Application period will start soon.
* NumFOCUS
** Go ahead with application (without waiting for feedback from FSF any longer).
