* [[6.3 Release Checklist]]
* [[6.3 Release Checklist]]
** If nothing big shows up, go ahead with the release in about 10 days (early July).
* OctConf?
** Instead of an in-person conference, meet up virtually.
** Ideas for code-sprint?
*** Improve test coverage
*** That could include automated tests for GUI features ("expect", Qt test classes, set <code>OCTAVE_SHOW_GUI_MESSAGES</code> to 1 to display signals with missing connections, ...)
* GUI
** Make widgets more modular
*** remove connections to parents (or parents of parents,...)
*** Only pass settings objects (instead of base qwidget) to widgets?
** Add widgets for:
*** displaying call stack. Select function in stack for appropriate <code>dbup</code> or <code>dbdown</code> command.
*** displaying result to an expression. Similar to debugger (watcher, ...)
** User expectations for evaluation code from the editor ("Evaluate selection") or the variable editor ("plot") while there is still pending input on the command line?
* Breakpoints
** Add feature to temporarily disable breakpoints
** Check syntax for breakpoints in subfunctions, local functions, private functions, methods, ... (<code>dbstatus</code>)
* <code>gsd</code>
** Current version is not Matlab-compatible nor correct in some circumstances.
** Rik is currently implementing a replacement.
* IRC channel on Freenode is down
** Replacement on libera?
** jwe will probably post something on discourse.
