  - Mark Waite find and finish Linux Foundation transfers from GSoC 2021

- CDF request to survey active maintainers of CDF projects
  - Survey invitation sent to Jenkins developer mailing list
  - Mark to ask for status report on the number of registered survey participants
    - Unclear to the readers that they don’t know how they or the project will benefit from the survey

  - Should include the motivation for the survey in the survey invitation email

- Forums and topics
  - [“I developed a jenkins dashboard app for desktop”](https://community.jenkins.io/t/i-developed-a-jenkins-dashboard-app-for-desktop/2301)
  - Delaying selection of next LTS baseline 2-4 weeks for stabilization
    - 2.346 released on Tuesday fixes a few more issues
    - Still a few remaining that make 2.347 (next Tuesday)

  - Java 11.0.15, Java 8u332, and Java 17.0.3 in progress
    - Java 17 is in “preview”, lower priority for the project

  - Require Java 11 JEP is looking good for Sept LTS
    - No Java 8 support in the Sept LTS, Java 11
    - More details in the communication plan
    - Specific change dates in weekly
      - Weeklies will require Java 11 sooner than
      - Commonly done immediately after the preceding LTS baseline
        - Would be within the next few weeks

      - Plugin won’t require Java 11 until they require a Jenkins version that requires Java 11
        - Most plugin maintainers choose an LTS release
        - Don’t see any requirement yet that forces plugin baseline version to be updated

      - Using Sept instead of June is a “quieter” LTS re: UI changes
        - June UI changes are significant

      - Need a canned response for the forums
        - Look at responses to tables to divs to find the right balance
        - Keep the responses simple and point to deep docs
          - What information do we need for a bug report
          - Include “What do we need in a bug?”

        - Consider a triage bot for a future project
          - You mentioned “bootstrap” and “class loader”, see this for more information

  - Contributor Summit at cdCon (face to face) - June 9
    - Register independent of cdCon
