As of last night the US is no longer on Daylight Savings Time.
This means that for those who are not lined up with United States DST
timings your perception of when deployments happen will change.
As always, the canonical location of when deployments are lives at:

Hello all,
I am trying to develop a chrome extension to work with wikipedia.
Started exploring javascript for login api.
Got this example.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Example_login_code_in_JS_%28using_JQuery%29
Stored the code as test.html and opened in chrome.
Got the following error.
No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested
resource. Origin 'null' is therefore not allowed access.
How to solve this error?
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:CORS
The examples here are not helpful.
Please guide me on how to login to mediawiki via javascript?
Thanks.

Hi all,
just a moment ago I noticed, that Rob Lanphier seems to (silently) does not
work for the WMF anymore? At least based on a comment on his WMF-account's
talk page[1] and a commit in gerrit[2] it seems he doesn't work at the WMF
anymore.
However: What happened? I haven't seen any public info about this? Can
someone explain what happened? I'm really interested in it, as I really like
RobLa, both as a person (at least from what I saw/read so far) and the
professional /technical input and things he did. Would be nice, if someone
could bring some light into the darkness :P
Best,
Florian

Hi all,
Just so everyone using the deployment-prep instances are aware:
deployment-puppetmaster has been retired in favour of
deployment-puppetmaster02, which runs role::puppetmaster::standalone, which
should behave much closer to how production puppetmasters and the labs
default puppetmaster work.
Details are in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T149620

Hello,
The search-as-you-type completion suggester, which powers the search
function at the top right of every page (or in the sidebar in Monobook),
can now be configured at Special:Preferences. The default setting includes
our most recent improvements to search while the new options make it easy
to restrict the completion suggester. This is useful when searching for
specific text in search queries. A description of the preferences can be
found on MediaWiki.org [0] or inline at Special:Preferences. Feedback and
questions are welcome. [1]

The Wikimedia continuous integration system will be unavailable while some
scheduled maintenance is done.
When: Thursday 3rd 2016 for two hours between 16:00 UTC to 18:00 UTC.
Impact: During that time, you will still be able to send patches to Gerrit but
no CI jobs will be run nor will patches be automatically merged when someone
votes "Code-Review +2". All patches sent during the operations will be sent to
the CI system for you as a convenience.
Why: The maintenance will move the core of the CI system (Jenkins and Zuul)
from an aged server to a fresh new machine.
More info: It will be done by Antoine Musso, Tyler Cipriani and Daniel Zahn.
You will be able to watch progress on IRC in the #wikimedia-operations channel.
