* Further discussion of changes which will be announced at a later
date.<br>
<br>
Miscellaneous:<br>
<br>
* Jorg raised concerns about pending changes at Mozilla which will
remove level 3 checkin rights to mozilla-* repositories, and level 4
access will be required. Until level 4 access can be arranged for
Thunderbird, we will need to work through level 4 committers for
checkins to those repos. [Issue has since been resolved - for hg,
thunderbird now has a <a
href="https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/comm-moz-esr68/"
moz-do-not-send="true">cloned mozilla-central-esr68 repo</a>]<br>
<br>
<p>* Jorg raised concerns about upcoming taskcluster changes and
whether there will be an impact to Thunderbird. Someone will
check into the details. [Issue has not evolved into a problem,
everything continued to work as normal.]</p>
* Magnus kicked off discussion of what we want to do for FOSDEM 2020
and how many people to send. To be continued.<br>
<br>
* Berna initiated discussion about code audits.<br>
