We have 4 3/4 engineers, even with SF office closed for Veterans Day on Nov 11 we should achieve great things.
Obviously the board TOC is highest priority. Shahyar will have a version of J2b "Opening the ToC dropdown" by Friday. flow-tests http://flow-tests.wmflabs.org/wiki/Talk:Sandbox is running the gerrit patches for a fixed header that shows the current topic title.
Pau Giner is in SF starting Monday and we will use his every waking hour :) for TOC review and search UX design.
Other themes for the sprint are * analytics (usage queries and event logging) * Flow on all officewiki talk pages * convert LQT pages to Flow
On analytics, we met with Dan Andreescu who's already set up a lot of infrastructure \o/ We have a web site http://flow-reportcard.wmflabs.org/# and patches in process that will let us commit queries to a limn-flow-data repository https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/project%3Aanalytics/limn-flow-data,n,z that will generate dashboard graphs. More in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Flow/Analytics
Rather than do a hacky conversion of officewiki's 10 LQT pages, we'd like all the features of LQT->Flow conversion implemented so the script is ready to (eventually) run on the other 12 LQT wikis, some with thousands of LQT pages . One feature we have to defer is programmatically enabling Flow on a converted LQT page; doing that properly by changing content format to 'flow-board' is a separate task that requires on $wgContentHandlerUseDB = true, which is blocked by security bug 70901.
We will have a meeting to triage Flow & Echo bugs soon.

Hi, speaking of Echo, I hope the plan is to have full Echo functionality with Flow from launch day if not before. Echo is widely used by the community, and it's one of my favorite features from the past few years.

It is indeed, and this is already implemented (we're continuing to improve it as needed). I encourage you to test at one of the existing places where Flow is installed (e.g. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Flow ).
If you watch boards/pages, that will trigger notifications when e.g. people post new topics.
