Dear Toolserver people!
Hi! I am the new person managing all toolserver issues at Wikimedia
Germany. This means that I am the contact person at WMDE for questions
concerning the current toolserver and I coordinate a small team of WMDE
staff members for the upcoming migration process to WMF Labs.
Wikimedia Germany is going to support the toolserver as long as there is
no alternative ready. I would like to stress that I'll do my best to
help you keep it running until then. Please don't hesitate to contact me
when any problem occurs. I am in touch with DaB and Marlen and I will
help with all I can do at WMDE to reduce failures/the time it takes to
fix them.
As you know, Wikimedia Foundation is currently working on a cloud-based
infrastructure for tools that will - at some point in the nearer future
- have functionalities equivalent to the toolserver. Many parts of it
are up and running, but right now, it is not clear when Labs will have
all the functionalities. Currently, WMDE and WMF are working together to
set up a concrete road map within the next months (until May). Once this
road map or further documentation exist, you'll know it, of course.
When it comes to migrating your stuff, WMF and WMDE staff will support
you as best we can - you saw Sumana's e-mail on this topic recently. I
am looking forward to working with you all!
You'll hear from me again soon and please don't hesitate to contact me
if you have any questions!
Best,
Silke
