Good morning, Multimedia-l! This is your (mostly) weekly update on the doings of the WMF Multimedia team.
== Pilot program ==
We've begun busily breaking^Wembettering several WMF sites with a default- on MultimediaViewer extension. Last Thursday, we turned it on for the MediaWiki wiki, where developers have their documentation and discussions, and this week we'll be enabling it for several small Wikipedias and the English Wikivoyage. See our release plan [0] for more.
== Cards from last week ==
Last week, we fixed a lot of bugs. [1-8]
We also worked on a few things related to the user survey [9] that we've now launched on all pilot sites, and finished up a small feature from the week before [10].
This is to be expected - releases are meant to be bug-focused and not too heavy on feature additions. You'll also see some attacks on tech debt and some scope increases during our next few weeks, as we deal with the last few issues on the project before we shift to others.
== Cards for this week ==
This week is a little lighter, but we expect there to be even more bugs and scope increases coming in. We're going to try fixing some issues with a subset of images [11], as well as improve metrics coverage [12-13], link directly to CC license deeds [14], and deal with some other small issues as we go.
== Feedbacks ==
If you have feedback for the Multimedia team, you should poke us, either on this mailing list or on our IRC channel, #wikimedia-multimedia on irc.freenode.net. We'll be looking for thoughts on our near-future plans in the coming weeks in particular, so keep an eye out and don't be afraid to speak up :)
