    v1 v2  
    4949  * Broken addon installation: The standalone installer was fixed by Martin and the link in the website was fixed accordingly. The problem was that during packaging, something went wrong and instead of getting 8.0.0, the installer got the dev version. The problem was originally reported in this [[https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-user/2022-February/082861.html thread]] in the mailing list.
    5050  * Modules not working in Windows: See https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/2013. Martin will check.
    51   * wxlocale error upon starting (https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/2101).
     51  * wxlocale error upon starting: See https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/2101. Martin will have a look.
     52* Backporting:
     53  * To avoid that future releases have problems, it would be better to let new features stay in main for a while so they get tested better and, instead release more frequently so to avoid waiting forever to get the new features out.
     54  * Adopting feature freezing for releases would prevent these last minute new features backport.
     55  * We should make more tests in GitHub actions to avoid bugs like the compilation bug shipped with 8.0.0, though recreating a no-network env within GitHub might be tricky (if possible).
     56* Google Summer of Code 2022:
     57  * Anna created the wiki page and called for ideas and mentors. She also sent a reminder/invitation to grass-dev.
     58  * This year GSoC will also admit non-students as long as this is their first contribution to open source software.
     59  * Parallelization will be again part of the ideas as other modules may take advantage of running in parallel. Huidae agree to mentor this idea.
     60  * Anna also suggested the cmake compilation as a potential project.
     61* DOI/Citation:
     62  * Markus proposed to order the n contributors from the last 12 months counting backwards from the release date (a sort of moving windows).
     63  * We discussed which criteria to use for the ordering and opted for number of lines changed over number of commits.
     64  * Automation using GitHub api to be studied (Vaclav?).
     65  * Markus found a command line call, but it lists contributors by number of commits:
     66  `curl -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" https://api.github.com/repos/OSGeo/grass/contributors`
