I'm happy to see "Starting to work on audio/video support in Parsoid (VE
will follow)". Any ETA on this? Links to Phab tickets would be appreciated
as well.
Thanks,
Pine

- Finished rebuilding pageview API for resiliency (10x improvments on
throughput and latency were done last quarter). A “programatic way to
get
pageviews” was one of the most requested items on community wishlist
last
year.
- Still working with DBAs to get data from labs, working functionally,
now working on performance
- AB testing document design done, will publish design document.
- Working on changes to parse user agent on eventlogging data so it is
not raw in tables
- Merged many patches to delete data aon hadoop on our 60 days schedule

*** More front-end patches have been merged, e.g. handling for conflicting

*** Back-end patch is up for review. This sends structured filter
information to the client, and changes how RecentChanges and Watchlist
filters are registered. It's still a WIP, but you might want to take a
look if your extension uses or might use such filters:
