General development discussion (trends, ideas, ...)
- 1) What's the state of ES 7 support? [tuxayo]
  - There doesn't seem to be anything related to ES 7 other than Bug 22520
  - Should we have something like this? «Bug 20196 - [Omnibus] Prepare Koha to ElasticSearch6 - ES6»
- 2) Default ES versions of koha-testing-docker and KohaDevBox [tuxayo]
  - Should they move to ES 6 by default? ES 5 is end of life since 2019-03 (ES 7 release)
    - https://www.elastic.co/support/eol
  - And should they move to ES 7 by default after a few months ?
    - When the deprecation warnings and the 1 known bug will be fixed, how can we find more bugs?
    - Because we can expect ES 6 to go end of life (ES 8 release) between the end of the year and the beginning of 2021
- 3) Should koha-testing-docker and KohaDevBox have ES enabled by default instead of Zebra? [tuxayo]
  - Again, to find more bugs. And it would make sense if we want to move toward making ES the recommended search engine in Koha.
Review of coding guidelines
- New coding guideline: Accessibility - aria-hidden="true" (see Bug 25166)
