[ACTIVITY] November 6-8 2013

Short week: 2 days off after Connect.

== Progress == * LP 1243656: reverted commit which causes a regression in GNU tar's tests. * Committed Kugan and Zhenqiang's backports to our branch * Status on backports: ILP32 support missing from binutils is blocking quite a few GCC backports (because of dependencies between commits) * Some problems building trunk since Nov 5th (failures in eglibc)

== Next == * Make 2013.11 releases * Continue working on GNU tar problem: find a proper fix. * Commit 'aarch64 frame grows downward' patch if Richard approves it. * Check status of aarch64 lib sanitizer branch if Rob manages to have it build & execute tests * Check Neon intrinsics testsuite status with Rob
