Hi!
FYI to those it may concern - we plan to institute regular WDQS deployments on Mondays for both code and GUI. Not much going to change except regular deployments would happen at predictable time instead of "whenever I feel like it" :) Does not preclude emergency deployments in case something is broken, of course, but hopefully this would introduce more predictability as the service matures. Guillaume would be doing the deployments, usually, with me stepping in if he can not.

Hello!
After discussion with Stas, we want to have a regular deployment window for Wikidata Query Service. This should help give better visibility on when new version arrives and help track issues with those new versions. I will take care of the deployments (with Stas' support, of course).
The deployment window is: every Monday, from 7pm CET (10am PST - 5pm UTC) starting from Monday April 11th.
Let me know if you have any question or if you know of another place where I should publicize this deployment window.
Take care,
Guillaume
Hi! Could we also have some daily deployed test site, so new features could be tried out and tested?
Cheers, Jonas

Hi!

There's a test server at wdq-beta.eqiad.wmflabs, on which I routinely test stuff. You could use it too. I'm not updating it daily though but anytime I need to test stuff, basically.
We could have another instance that is auto-deployed from the deployment repo daily by scripts, if necessary.
