Committee board activity:
*
T175745 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T175745 *"overwrite edits when conflicting with self"* has once again come up while working on EditPage. There seems to no longer be any reason for this behavior. I think it does more harm then good. We should just remove it.
RFCs:
Phase progression:
* T266866 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T266866 *"Bump basic supported browsers (grade C) to require TLS 1.2"*: newly filed, lively discussion. Phase 1 for now.

*
T263841 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T263841*"Expand API title generator to support other generated data"*: dropped back to phase 2 because resourcing is unclear.
