Scrum of scrums/2014-03-26
Task Wall
editDocs
editNotable action items
edit- Multimedia is blocked by ops, QA, and OOJS review for their impending release
- Zero blocked by ops on review for portal
- Growth still awaiting code review from platform/core RE deletion logging enhancement
- Chris McMahon is OOO 31 Mar and 1 Apr, contact Zeljko, Antoine or Greg G if you need QA assistance
Language
edit- LU rewrite has been deployed. Extensions just migrated to json will take a bit longer to update (migration has to go through the train first).
- #80 Writing middle layer for ElasticSearch - bootstrap and tm works now with some quirks (Thanks Nik)
- Just FYI: Summer time starts in most of Europe next week
QA
editClearing off the backlog with
- VE
- infrastructure
- hiring
- Wikimania
- 3rd party accounts
in order to devote significant time to the next MobileFrontend iteration
- still worrying at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62614, a discrepancy between session info when activating a setting in MobileFrontend
Note: Chris is OOO 31 Mar and 1 Apr, contact Zeljko, Antoine or Greg if you need QA assistance
Multimedia
edit- Ops absent, but they will be pinged about #90 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/120617/ (varnish change improvement stalled because we don't know how to test them ourselves).
- Greg he'll take a look at #91 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/120703/ (now merged, 2 minutes later ;) )Thanks!
- QA team will look at #92 (cucumber "repurposed" for performance testing) https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/119917/
- No VE team representative, but there should be enough people with OOJS UI knowledge to take care of #89 (simple OOJS UI bugfix) https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/120685/
Growth
editContinued work on non-linear tours and GettingStarted and GuidedTour cleanup. Sam started a patch (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/120806/) to provide a cookie module on the client that works the same as the server (mediawiki.cookie). It's a WIP currently.
Parsoid
edit- Parsoid/Deployments
- good progress on HTML templating, PHP port hopefully this week
- lots of improvements in image handling, some DOM spec updates in that area
Ops
edit- JVM App Deployment:
** coming along! http://archiva.wikimedia.org ** working on deployment, will start writing lots of docs soon.
- varnishkafka
** Mark and Otto to do some transatlantic troubleshooting soon.
Mobile
edit- #70 - one thing still missing (VE theme split)
- #87 - would be good to have sooner than later so that we can test VE easily, scheduled
Zero
edit- Zero Portal: waiting for OPs/Reedy to deploy https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/119985/ and https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/119990/
- Need ops feedback for https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Reducing_image_quality_for_mobile
- Also core review of that RFC implementation: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/119661/
- #2 ESI - no progress
- #57 Firefox OS - work continues on reboot, may need new RL core change in next couple weeks. Status: doing
- New cards requested:
- CirrusSearch for rebooted apps: (not purely Zero, but on Adam B's task list) - Adam talked with Chad today, he said okay and no need to add fallbacks. Status: to-do
- Firefox OS Wikipedia zero detection: app will make one API hit at app launch, may cause more log entries, but not significant load. Status: in code review
- Analytics W0 dashboards: Analytics working on per-operator configuraton approach, Carolynne & Dan discussing and will talk with Toby & Tomasz. Status: in analysis.
- W0 to add more proxy information to X-Analytics: for gateway analysis. Status: to-do
Analytics
edit- #88 - Event logging issue caused this, talking with Ori to transition EventLogging to analytics team. But graphs are updating though there is lost data for the two days EL was down.
Flow
edit- sharing code!: client storage code with Mobile, also Mobile's approach to loading templates (hogan/handlebars, basically the same)
- #84 Parsoid CSS in progress
VisualEditor
edit- Collaborating with mobile and Parsoid as usual
- Worked with lang eng to get LocalisationUpdate changes merged and deployed, working now modulo pending bug fixes
- Working on oojs-ui-ifying UploadWizard
- Goal: embeddability in VE
- MarkH says they don't have time for it until May; that's OK, RobM will just do it and ask MarkH for review
- Roan needs to catch up on ResourceLoader code review :S
