Thanks Tim! And thanks to Timo for going through the old RFCs. We haven't done that in a while.

Besides the RFCs, I'd like to talk about the GitLab consultation in our meting tomorrow: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/GitLab_consultation

TechCom is listed under "consulted", so I suppose we should form an opinion.

Two tasks have been sitting in there for multiple weeks

Ah, I guess that'S why they didn't show up under "activity". One is the Parsoid Extension API RFC mentioned below. The other one is T239742: "Should npm packages maintained by Wikimedia be scoped or unscoped?"

T157402 Provide a reliable way to pass information between hook handlers, "hooked" objects

An RFC that was stalled since 2019, closed "declined"

Probably obsolete due to the new hook system.

T487 Associated namespaces

Timo asks if it can be merged with something.

I think we can close this, the intended use cases are covered by MCR.

T114662 Per-language URLs for multilingual wiki pages

Timo closed due to lack of owner

I'd like to come back to this eventually. But I don't see anyone driving it right now.

T193690 How should we fix the undeletion system?

Timo moved to P1 and stalled

This does need fixing, but is entangled with UX and producty questions. Nothing is going to happen unless the community pushes on it. Which will probably only happen once something breaks badly.

T196950 Pages do not have stable identifiers

Timo closed due to lack of owner

Page IDs are "mostly" stable these days, right?

T260714 Parsoid Extension API

Prior to last week's meeting, Subbu described the consultation work that has been done.

Suggest last call

Yea, let's.
