Yes, it’s hard.

which relates to this.

This is the weekly TechCom board review in preparation
of our meeting on
Wednesday. If there are additional topics for TechCom to review, please let
us know by replying to this email. However, please keep discussion about
individual RFCs to the Phabricator tickets.
Activity since Monday 2020-09-28 on the following boards:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/techcom/
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/techcom-rfc/
Committee inbox:
-
T264334 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T264334>: Could the
registered module manifest be removed from the client?
-
New task about the possibility of removing the huge module registry
from the js sent to the client. The idea is being discussed.
Committee board activity: Nothing to report, besides inbox
New RFCs: none.
Phase progression:
-
T262946 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T262946>: Bump Firefox
version in basic support to 3.6 or newer
-
Moves to P3 (explore)
-
It is pointed out that we’ve dropped support in production for TLS
1.0/1.1 in january, so de facto only Firefox 27+ is able to connect to the
wikimedia sites
-
In light of that, it’s suggested that we might bump the minimum
supported versions of browsers further.
IRC meeting request: none
Other RFC activity:
-
T260714 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T260714>: Parsoid Extension
API.
-
Last call to be approved, that will end on October 7 (tomorrow)
-
T487 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T487>: RfC: Associated
namespaces.
-
On last call to be declined, there is some opposition to the
opportunity of marking it as declined on phabricator. Last call should end
on October 7 (tomorrow)
-
T263841 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T263841>: RFC: Expand API
title generator to support other generated data.
-
Erik asks if this is going to be generally applied to all
generators or not.
Cheers,
Giuseppe
