| ** Bug with graphic handles while closing Octave (bug {{bug|58814}}) was reported. This happens when exit is called from a script or when directly calling exit after running the script in the CLI. How to properly handle graphics callbacks during exit? | | ** Build (RC) anyway! |
| ** 32-bit MS Windows builds | | ** crashes during doc graphics creation seem to be fixed (bug {{bug|56952}}) |
| *** ode15 with Sundials make problems (bug {{bug|58795}}). Maybe already solved.
| | ** still elusive crashes while running the test suite on the build bots (bug {{bug|57591}}) -> Maybe the broader user base of an RC can shed some light on "real-life frequency" of these crashes. |
| *** Precision problems failing the test suite (bug {{bug|58807}}). Solvable by requiring SSE2 instructions. Go ahead with it. | | ** possible background: interaction between graphics system and interpreter is different from interaction of rest of GUI with the interpreter. Possibly resolvable by a copy-on-write approach for graphics objects (postponed to Octave 7) |
| *** Unreported GUI problems. Done with (bug {{bug|58844}}). | |

| * Are there breaking changes in Octave 6 to inform package maintainers? No, only deprecated functions are now removed. | | * Try to tackle bugs with debuggers |
| | ** valgrind slow |
| | ** <code>-fsanitize=thread</code> in memory and faster |
|
| |
|
| * Add script to start GDB session from Octave for debugging, see [[Debugging Octave]]. | | * Before Octave 6.1.0 release, discharge MS Windows 10 Malware Detection Systems (e.g. upload to https://www.virustotal.com/) |

| === Octave community ===
| |
| | |
| * Changes about the mailing-list advertisements
| |
| ** Are there sports left where the help mailing-list is advertised, e.g. GUI? Maybe not.
| |
| | |
| * Get rid of nabble? (Discussion was short here)
| |
| | |
| === Octave 7 ideas ===
| |
| | |
| * Range datatype
| |
| ** Should Octave support numeric operations on them?
| |
| ** There was a thread on the maintainers mailing-list by jwe. Open discourse thread about it.
| |
| | |
| * Loading and saving
| |
| ** Octave load/save supports a bunch of data types (mat v4, text, ascii, ...)
| |
| *** Deprecate some of them? Open Discourse discussion about it.
| |
| *** Large array support for Octave's own storage types?
| |
| *** Storage of nested functions in mat v4 in Matlab possible?
| |
| ** Focus on the HDF5 format in the future. Matlab prioritizes it too, external tools for viewing the files available.
| |
| ** Support classdef load/save.
| |

| === Code sprints ===
| |
| | |
| * There was a suggestion to have online code sprints, dedicated to one particular topic, as addition to the online developer meetings.
