Hello,
this week’s email is coming from a new sender, since Pine always says
we’re also allowed to start the thread :)
I am thankful that the software migration from HHVM to PHP7 in
production is mostly completed. Many people participated in this work,
but some especially prominent (Phabricator) names seem to be
Jdforrester-WMF, Krinkle, jijiki, Joe, and Reedy – apologies to the
people that I inevitably missed. This migration also unlocks many code
style improvements that were previously blocked on HHVM compatibility
requirements, and Daimona has been very active here, modernizing code
and configuration across lots of source code repositories: thank you!

What’s making you happy this week? You are welcome to write in any

PS: Did you know? In Germany, the week starts on Monday, not Sunday! I
kept the email subject aligned to Sunday, though, in case referring to
the “week of 14 October” would confuse anybody :)
