   (done) Jody no longer works at Lisasoft

Build failures clean ups

Andrea making PRs to disable tests (for example oracle, macOS) that only
occur on the cloud services. Both for GeoTools and GeoServer.

   -

   False failures are making evaluating PRs annoying (folks assume the
   oracle failure and merge)
   -

   General approach is to make a profile to “mute” tests that are not
   working on CI testing.

Cleanup Sprint

Cleanup:

   -

   GeoSolutions proposed a 2 day sprint to clean up bugs (since we have not
   been doing monthly maintenance).
   -

   Bolsena Online Code Sprint is also close
   https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Bolsena_Code_Sprint_2020

Action:

   -

   All: Join the Bolsena code sprint for June 2nd and 3rd
   -

   Jody: Ask attendees their address, and send food / beer / breakfast as
   appropriate
   -

      Group “video chat” at 14:00 UTC

Chit chat

Notes:

   -

   Jody owes Torben a small revision for MBStyle Expressions
   <https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/2930&gt;
   -

   Upgrade the formatter pending :stuck_out_tongue:
   -

      Warning: Don’t add comment in the imports as that breaks formatter
      -

   Note OSGeo email lists war blocked
   <https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/2475&gt; (only security email list was
   affected)
   -

   JTS release scheduling, looks like a release incoming
   -

      The OverlayNG work looks great but will be in a future version
