An upgrade to JupyterHub is going out on 2021-10-26. There will be a new
singleuser container as a result. Currently running containers may need
restarting.
Thank you,

Today you can try searching for various keywords to find tools in the
catalog (i.e. "Wikidata", "image", "editor", "template" ...). We're
interested in adding support for the community to organize tools in
categories/based on use cases in the future. There are some notes from past
Design Research on that in the Data Model documentation. [0]
Please feel welcome to comment on the talk page if you have further
questions or ideas! [1]

A long time coming! The interface looks amazing and seems very well thought
out. It's nice to have an official, single go-to for all things tools, user
scripts, gadgets, etc. Huge thanks and kudos to everyone involved!

If you were running a Toolforge web tool in Kubernetes before the toollabs-webservice label changes were deployed on 2021-09-29 (https://sal.toolforge.org/tools?d=2021-09-29 <https://sal.toolforge.org/tools?d=2021-09-29>). You may need to run `webservice stop && webservice start` in order to ensure your replica sets have correct label expectations on them going forward. Otherwise you may find confusing states may happen when running webservice restart and similar commands.
When I backfilled the new labels, I missed that you cannot change the label matching rules in a deployment retroactively. I apologize for any inconvenience.
In summary: If you haven’t run a webservice stop since 2021-09-29 on your Kubernetes web service, it would be a good idea to stop and start your webservice now to prevent any confusing behavior from webservice in the future.

Dear all,
It’s time for our third edition of the Coolest Tool Award!
Tools play an essential role at Wikimedia, and so do the many volunteer
developers who experiment with new ideas, develop & maintain local &
global solutions and enhance the experience for Wikimedia communities.
We’d like to invite you all to nominate your favorite & most used tools
and help us celebrate the people who create them!
As no one can possibly know all the cool tools out there, we’re looking
for some help and inspiration: please point us to the tools that you
think are great - for any reason you can think of!
Please go to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Coolest_Tool_Award
to recommend tools by October 27, 2021. You can nominate as many tools
as you want by filling out the form multiple times.
Thank you very much for your ideas & recommendation(s)!
The award is organized & selected by the Coolest Tool Academy 2021. We
plan to recognize the greatest tools in a variety of categories (for
examples, see last year’s categories). The award ceremony will take
place virtually again this year and we will provide more details soon
about the specific logistics and dates.
We will continue to spread the word over the next week, but if you get
the chance, please feel welcome to share this information with others
too!
Thanks :-)
Andre, for the Coolest Tool Academy 2021
