[Re-posting with fixed links. Thanks for pointing this out Cormac!]
This is the weekly TechCom board review. Remember that there is no meeting on
Wednesday, any discussion should happen via email. For individual RFCs, please
keep discussion to the Phabricator tickets.
Activity since Monday 2020-10-26 on the following boards:
https://phabricator.wiki09media.org/tag/techcom/
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/techcom/>
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/techcom-rfc/
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.
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T262946>
*
T263841 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T263841>*"Expand API title
generator to support other generated data"*: dropped back to phase 2 because
resourcing is unclear.
* T262946 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T262946> *"Bump Firefox version
in basic support to 3.6 or newer"*: last call ending on Wednesday, November
4. Some comments, no objections.
Other RFC activity:
* T250406 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T250406> *"Hybrid extension
management"*: Asked for clarification expectations for WMF to publish
extensions to packagist. Resourcing is being discussed in the platform team.
Cheers,
