edit
  • Blocked by:
    • phab:T236930 needs resolution for using VE with Parsoid/PHP on non-RESTBase wikis (ex: officewiki, wikitech). Need Core Platform Team to take a look at it
    • These next 4 testing / QA tasks aren't strictly a blocker yet, but will quickly become blockers as we are aiming to roll out Parsoid/PHP for all live traffic in the coming weeks (before Thanksgiving). Some teams are already working on them, but just flagging them all here for completeness' sake - thanks to you all for addressing them.

  • Updates:
    • As of Nov 4, Parsoid/PHP cluster is receiving 100% of Parsoid/JS change prop reparse traffic (which makes up > 90% of all traffic that Parsoid handles). Performance, error rates are all looking good. ( phab:T235902 )
    • So, we are getting ready to roll this out everywhere in the coming weeks in a phased manner (wiki-by-wiki for *all* services). Appreciate testing against Parsoid/PHP in the beta cluster. See description of phab:T229074 for how to test against Parsoid/PHP.
