Dry run patch for external store migration is merged. Now we need to set External Store up on Beta, then test the dry run patch there: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T119567
Blocked: Need input from Collaboration, see below.
Updates:
ruthenium updated to jessie and node 4.2 with almost everything puppetized (thanks to ops, Marko, Ori). Tests look good. Need to run separate memory load tests before making a decision to move production parsoid to node 4.2
Need input from collaboration team about https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T124837 (migrating Flow to talk with RESTBase) since it will simplify support when we remove inlined data-mw from Parsoid HTML (I consider this ticket a weak blocker)
Matt: Should we schedule a meeting about this? Sure .. let us do it this week.
Will work with services team to finalize REST API versioning policy this week -- last chance to provide input on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T124365 ... Policy will be applied when Parsoid HTML version is changed after inlined data-mw is moved out of Parsoid HTML
Heads up (VE, Language, Flow): We might be able to deploy templatedata-based serialization of transclusions next week (depends on reviews this week).
Released yesterday (wmf.12), editing via jQuery.IME (thanks to Language for their support); table editing improvements (move columns/rows; copy-paste multiple cells; make/unmake tables sortable/wikitable; cell and table contexts)
wmf.13 will contain a split up version of OOUI; see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T113677 for work on this and some numbers. This is not a breaking change except for non-MediaWiki users of OOUI like VE, for whom we'll flag this.
