I think Mondays are best for wikidata.  If there are nasty undiscovered bugs in core, then best keep them out.  

We also make our deployment branches on Wednesdays, need adequate time to test it and fix any issues that appear during tests.  That means deploying a day after branching might be a bit quick.

(although I realize most other, if not all, extensions are deployed directly from master)

Cheers,
Katie

Yep! Thanks Katie for sending out the reminder to everyone (/me makes
note to send reminder out to wikitech-l...)

For you all: Let me know if you want to move where wikidata.org is in
the deploy schedule; ie: do you want to move it to first group or stay
in the second (of three)?

Best,

Greg
