I would say that it's useful to me to identify and declare blocks,
sometimes I get more attention from SoS instead of Phab and Gerrit
discussions (even in this new email list model). And I also use some
filtering for keywords to highlight if the team and projects I'm part of
are mentioned in case I miss something. Maybe I'm overfitted [1] to the
task and SoS could be rethought, but right now I'm not against to keeping
it.
I imagine it's a burden to house-keep SoS every week, perhaps the email
list could be more automated to reduce that burden?

Hi,
TLDR: reply to me (off-list) if you would think Scrum of scrums is still
useful.
I've been sending Scrum of scrums[0] mails to wikitech-l list since
2019-03-20[1]. The meeting has existed since 2013. I haven't done any
proper research, but a quick look says the number of participating
teams is decreasing significantly.
Quick sample, the first meeting of July in years 2014-2020.
