Sounds like a good idea. If there is no objections to my potentially crazy idea I will drop them a note on their mailing list...

Fwd: Zurich Hackathon: Creating a map namespace
by Quim Gil 07 Mar '14

07 Mar '14

fyi -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [WikimediaMobile] Zurich Hackathon: Creating a map namespace Date: Wed, 5 Mar 2014 12:54:52 -0800 From: Jon Robson <jdlrobson(a)gmail.com> To: Wikimedia developers <wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>, mobile-l <mobile-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> This may be extremely ambitious, but I'm keen to kick off development around the creation of a map namespace during the Zurich hackathon. The goal would be to setup an editable map namespace that could be used for a variety of things, one of which would be adding a map view to the Special:Nearby page provided via the mobile site. The goal is a proof of concept not necessarily anything production ready (but that would be great if we could get to that point!) Please let me know if you would also be interested on hacking such a thing - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Z%C3%BCrich_Hackathon_2014/Geo_Namespace - or if doing so would be a terrible idea (but if you have to go down that route please provide constructive reasoning on what would be a less terrible idea) Excited to hack on cool things in Zurich! _______________________________________________ Mobile-l mailing list Mobile-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mobile-l

Maps project labs migration
by Daniel Schwen 06 Mar '14

06 Mar '14

Hello Labs-Maps people, I'm working on migrating my WMA Labs instance to eqiad. In the process I made changes to teh Maps project's security groups. Basically I adjusted the CIDR ranges from 10.4.0.0/21 (only access from pmtpa) to 10.0.0.0/8 (access from eqiad, pmtpa, and production). Otherwise there is no way to log into the eqiad instances or copy stuff over :-) Daniel

Building a Wikimedia Maps & Geo team
by Tomasz Finc 04 Mar '14

Maps and Geo community members. I've put together a proposal to build a new team at the WMF that I'd love your feedback on. Take a pass on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Engineering/Maps_%26_Geo_Team and let me know what you think on the discussion page. I'd especially like your help on the possible projects we could focus on with a key eye on contributions. --tomasz

Bug 2340 - Support for OS grid refs for maps of UK and Ireland
by Quim Gil 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

Allow me to introduce you to the oldest report that didn't receive any reply in our entire Bugzilla. It's related with maps: Bug 2340 - Support for OS grid refs for maps of UK and Ireland https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2340 I have no idea about the topic itself, but maybe someone in this list can follow up there, and remove such honor from that report. :) -- Quim Gil Technical Contributor Coordinator @ Wikimedia Foundation http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Qgil

user-store and tile store failed again
by Marlen Caemmerer 13 Feb '14

13 Feb '14

Hello, today the user-store on TS and tile store failed again. It is currently checking the file system and can take a while. I will move the stores to another host after this is done. Sorry for this, hope it gets better afterwards. Cheers Marlen/nosy

Maintenance: Reboot+fsck of Toolserver user-store
by Marlen Caemmerer 08 Feb '14

08 Feb '14

Hello, NFS has been quite unstable lately regarding user-store and it seems a filesystem check for user-store is needed, too. I have decided to reboot + check the machine. This means, some tools and OSM will not work during the maintenance. The filesystem check will take quite some time because the volume is quite big. Maintenance will happen Monday, 10th Feb 10pm UTC - Tuesday, 11th Feb 3am Cheers Marlen/nosy

Is OSM a dead end for Wikimedia?
by Stephan Knauss 03 Jan '14

03 Jan '14

Hi together, I'm having an account on Toolserver to develop new ideas for OSM and how to make it useful for wikipedia. With the announced end-of-life of toolserver I wanted to see how to migrate to labs. I found it quite disappointing. Not much information regarding OSM on labs at all. Is Wikimedia discontinuing support for OSM and ending the collaboration? I found only few documents regarding OSM. OSM probably unsupported: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58797 Tileserver not created for two years... https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33980 Maybe only move 5 tools to Labs (comment Silke) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Labs/Toolserver_features_needed_in… So the question is: Will there be support for people developing new ideas? Will we have access to a development machine having a database replication? Development on a production tileserver is a bad idea, but no one talked about a dev server. Is this the end of OSM for Wikimedia? I'm going to renew my toolserver account and enjoy the last 6 months until the lights go off... Stephan

Toolserver: Renew your accounts before January 6th
by Tim Landscheidt 22 Dec '13

22 Dec '13

Hi, as the migration of OSM from Toolserver to Labs will likely not be finished within the next two weeks :-) (cf. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/58797 and https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/33980), if you have a Toolserver account, you should renew it by logging into willow.toolserver.org and executing acctrenew. Also, there are some pending bugs regarding maps/OSM in JIRA: - "create an osm template databaseon ptolemy and allow custom databases" (https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-675) - "encoding of osm_mapnik database" (https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-714) - "Nicer URL for hillshading tiles" (https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-867) - "Add column addr:housename to planet_osm database" (https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-1087) - "please update PostGIS to 1.5.5 on ptolemy" (https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-1494) - "upgrade pg_dump" (https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-1578) - "Update VIPS on wolfsbane and ortelius" (https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-1630) Please comment on JIRA or here whether these issues are still current or have been fixed/obsoleted in the meantime. Thanks in advance, Tim
