==== Offspot-OLIP ====
* Agreed on [https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/oi_docker multi-steps roadmap] to build OLIP and Offspot images from a single toolchain that will ultimately be operated by the Cardshop and/or OLIP Marketplace.
* Agreed on development distribution and schedule (debuts in April 2022)
* Created repositories for [https://github.com/offspot/base-image base-image] and [https://github.com/offspot/image-creator image-creator]
==== Zimfarm ====
* [https://github.com/kiwix/maintenance/issues/191 New Zimfarm Drive] and move files needed by recipes in it.
==== Kiwix JS ====
* Latest libzim can now be compiled easily and properly with emscripten. It's ready to be [https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-build/issues/503 integrated in kiwix-build].
*A [https://mossroy.github.io/libzim_wasm/ proof of concept] shows that we are able to use this libzim in javascript to read ZIM content, including xapian full-text search. But there is still a limit on the ZIM file size on the emscripten side : we've created [https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/15394 an issue] there, with a simple test-case.
*An incomplete integration of this libzim in kiwix-js is available in [https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-js/pull/766 a PR], and makes use of libzim to read most content. It works well, but [https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-js/issues/767 is currently slower]
*[https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-js/pull/771 A PR] is ready to implement the workaround to use ServiceWorker mode in Firefox extensions, which is a pre-requisite to switch to ServiceWorker mode by default. The PR has still to be polished a bit.
*[https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-js/issues/404#issuecomment-953606042 A decision] has been made on how to handle external links in ServiceWorker mode (which was also a pre-requisite to switch to ServiceWorker mode by default)
==== openZIM ====
* Released v7 of [https://github.com/openzim/docker-publish-action docker-publish-action] with webhook support (to trigger auto-deploy on Sloppy)
* Agreement on Hints and impact on suggestion/ft indexes, see [https://github.com/openzim/libzim/issues/642#issuecomment-954062597 openzim/libzim #642]
==== Kiwix-tools ====
* [https://github.com/kiwix/libkiwix/pull/628 Improve Kiwix-serve Welcome page usability]
==== MWoffliner ====
* [https://github.com/kiwix/overview/issues/59 Analysed and close a ticket (is invalid) reported by IIAB]
* First experimentation with Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu). It does not seem to work out of the box because of some kind of conflict around node-gyp.
==== CMS ====
* Finish to define M0 and M1
* Progresses on completing M0
==== Kiwix-Android ====
* Preparatory work around release of 3.4.7 (migration to Maven, [https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-android/pull/2727 support of SD card in Android11], recruitement)
==== General ====
* Make preparatory work to outphase our custom library XML format, see https://github.com/kiwix/overview/issues/59.
=== Libkiwix ===
* [https://github.com/kiwix/libkiwix/pull/626 Better handling of metadata]
