* [[6.3 Release Checklist]]
* [[6.3 Release Checklist]]
* jwe prepared a [https://octave.discourse.group/t/release-candidate-available/1227/67 second release candidate].
* 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, ...). Does anyone have experience with this?
=== 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>). See: [https://octave.discourse.group/t/identifiers-for-breakpoints/1291 Identifiers for breakpoints]
=== <code>gsvd</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?
* <strike>jwe will probably post something on discourse.</strike>
* See: [https://octave.discourse.group/t/irc-channel-for-octave/1348 IRC channel for Octave] (on Discourse).
