QT4 CG Agenda 031, 18 April 2023

[ Resend, this time with an agenda that doesn’t require a time machine. ]

Hello folks,

Here’s the proposed agenda for next week. Mostly, it picks up where we
left off, but I did add a few PRs: one that I think is now ready for
continued discussion and a couple that looked like they might be easy to
resolve.
