[17:07:37] <jaheikki3> Most of open issues has fix proposal available
[17:09:17] <jaheikki3> But there is still some without fix as well, hoping we can get fixes for those remaining ones really soon
[17:09:48] <jaheikki3> Also there seems to be problems to get some fixes through CI :(
[17:10:15] <jaheikki3> But we are really close to get rc content in place.
[17:11:01] <jaheikki3> To be able to keep the schedule we need to have content in place & in qt5.git during this week, preferrably already tomorrow

[17:15:57] <jaheikki3> ok, for android Simo is still working to get gcc4.9 in the use, it seems one blocker fix needs that
[17:17:07] <jaheikki3> The plan forward is:
[17:17:40] <jaheikki3> Get remaining blockers fixed as soon as possible & get fixes in qt5.git during this week
[17:18:05] <jaheikki3> Get rc packages for testing latest on Friday
