Your help resolving tasks at
http://fab.wmflabs.org/project/board/31/ is
welcome.
Out of curiousity, why is production content hosted on wmflabs? Thought
it's a server where folks are just testing new stuff.
Because we decided to work on the Phabricator project in Phabricator, to
learn in depth how it works and how could we work best with it. Thanks to
this some Wikimedians have a learned a lot by now, we can define processes
knowing what we are talking about, we can write documentation confidently,
and we are going to be hopefully useful to the wave of new users to come by
Day 1.
Yes, Labs is not production, but
fab.wmflabs.org is being backed up on a
daily basis and so far has been up & running without losing any data. It's
a compromise that we have accepted happily.
