== Wednesday ==
The new search cluster will be upgraded (to ElasticSearch 1.0.1).
* This will begin at 0:00 UTC March 6th/4pm Pacific March 5th and will
take a few hours to complete.
* All wikis currently using the new search (CirrusSearch) will be
temporarily switched back to the old serach (lsearchd)
* You shouldn't see much of a change in search behavior (CirrusSearch is
mostly feature parity to lsearchd) if your wiki is on new search, but
to see a list of wikis that currently have CirrusSearch enabled (and
in what way: Beta Feature or Primary), see:
** https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Search#Wikis
== Thursday ==
MediaWiki upgrades
* group2 to 1.23wmf16 (all Wikipedias)
* group0 to 1.23wmf17 (test/test2/testwikidata/mediawiki)
As always, questions welcome,
Greg
