Thanks Dan. Can you share an approximate completion date?
(What is with half of the WMF staff responding to routine emails on
weekends? All you workaholics and overachievers...) :)

How are we doing on SUL finalization anyway? If I
remember correctly the
lead on this is Dan so I'm pinging him.
Hey Pine,
Progress is pretty good. As noted in Erik's presentation at Monthly
Metrics last Thursday, we're wrapping up the necessary engineering work and
starting to figure out a date that makes sense to perform the finalisation.
The engineering work is mostly feature complete (with the notable exception
of one half of one of the initiatives, which is half finished). The work
still needs rigorous testing, which I can arrange by getting everything
deployed to testwiki once we're finished developing it all.
We're not quite at where I had hoped we would be (I'd hoped the
engineering work would be totally featured complete), which was noted by
Erik colouring the SUL box yellow rather than green during Metrics. That
said, the progress we've made towards the SUL finalisation this quarter has
been more than the progress in all previous quarters combined... at least,
while I've been at the WMF. So I'm pretty pleased.
Dan
