Dear tech ambassadors, another Phabricator announcement that you are encouraged to spread.

We are very interested in testing the creation of accounts using non-Latin and/or non-alphabetical in Wikimedia usernames. It should work now that we have applied a fix, but more testing is welcome. For more details, see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T547

Subject: Wikimedia Phabricator is now open for everyone
To: Wikimedia developers <wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org>


Today we celebrate an important milestone in the Phabricator project:

https://phabricator.wikimedia.org is now open to all Wikimedia users!

Special thanks go to @chasemp and @mmodell, who lead us to this milestone with their Phabricator expertise.


Please get your account and let us know if you find any problems.

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Help#Creating_your_account explains how to register and how to claim your fab activity today (and your RT and Bugzilla activity in the future).

You are invited to participate in existing projects. Creation of new projects is closed until the completion of the Bugzilla migration -- see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Help#Requesting_a_new_project


NEXT STEPS

We will set up a separate Phabricator instance containing a sample of Bugzilla reports imported automatically, for your delight and criticism. After this instance is announced, we will leave at least one week for community feedback before deciding the next steps.
