* Performance over time (Arun, Rik)
** [https://octave.discourse.group/t/a-small-benchmark-for-interpreted-code-for-three-versions-of-octave/2531/4 Discourse thread for background]
** Analysis and profiling of existing code base -- share and solicit experiences.
** Performance benchmark to track speed over time as part of CI?


* GSoC: call for mentors (Nir/Kai)
** Interesting mentors should write to Nir or Kai before: 2022-05-06, ideally before.
** Final deadline (to the sponsor) is May 12.
* Octave 7.1.0 post-release remarks:
** Overall time from merge of default to stable (2021-11-24) until release of version 7.1.0 (2022-04-06): approx. 4 months
*** Why does it take us so long for the last couple of releases?
*** Should we start the release process earlier?
** A couple of bugs have been solved on the stable branch since the release. Last time we released 6.2.0 pretty early after 6.1.0. Should we do the same again?
** Regressions that should probably be solved before a potential 7.2.0:
*** bug {{bug|62308}}: use of octave::feval causes error: function '...' not found
*** patch {{patch|10200}}: wrong axes using stairs in subplot  ---  This affects a lot more plotting functions besides stairs. They always plot into <code>gca</code> and ignore the input axes handle.
*** others?
* Wikipedia updates - minor updates needed to bring up to date.
** see https://octave.discourse.group/t/octave-wikipedia-pages/2600/1
