Quick update, we are reviewing the list of candidate tools to invite to test the service. We are thinking of reducing the number to ~30 tools that already use flask, python and git, and prioritizing those that still have to migrate off the grid (~12).
Here's a quick preliminary list[1].
Anyone knows of users that might be interested too? (even if they don't really match that criteria). We can add those to the list also.
We will re-check and expand the list after ~2 weeks.
I'll update the task once we have something a bit more defined.

The only communication specific to this project that currently happens in private (that I'm aware of) is the bi-weekly sync meeting, in which we decide the tasks each will take for the next iteration, and then is reflected publicly on the project board. We can consider opening it for anyone if you are interested.
Could we start from making the notes from those meetings public?
Done :)

Though the idea was to add the noes in the page (did not get to it yet):

We started (but stopped by mistake) to put it in the wiki, where it should have been:
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Portal:Toolforge/Ongoing_Efforts/Toolfor...
Note that anything noted there was added after the decisions were made public.
Also, can I ask which communication channels were used to decide on the details of the upcoming release and user communications relating to that? Was it this meeting or something else?
There was not really a common decision made, just communicated to the rest of us and shared both in the toolforge build sync, and the following toolforge workgroup meeting (where you were also).
