Minutes edit
- We had an IRC meeting on refactoring revision storage in the database https://tools.wmflabs.org/meetbot/wikimedia-office/2017/wikimedia-office.2017-05-10-21.02.html
- The RFC on deprecating the usage of PHP’s (un)serialize function was not approved after the Last Call period. There seems to be consensus on the goal, and there was good discussion on the details; however, proposal should now be amended to address the issues raised in the discussion. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161647
- New RFC “PostgreSQL schema change for consistency with MySQL” https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T164898

- There will be no ArchCom meeting next week (May 17), due to people being on route to the hackathon. We may skip the week after the hackathon too (May 24).
