All,
New hardware is in place and we've got plenty of breathing room to wrap up the migration to the new search engine. The only wikis not already on it are: frwiki, zhwiki, dewiki and enwiki.
We're planning to switch frwiki next Wednesday, Nov. 5th.
If all goes well with that, I'd like us to do zhwiki the following Monday, Nov 10th. Then if things are still ok, let's do dewiki on Wednesday, Nov 12th.
I think we'll be fine at this point and then we can talk about a proposed date for enwiki by the end of November.
We're still on target for zhwiki/dewiki next week. I think we're good for enwiki the week after on Wednesday the 19th.
(Going to notify WP:VPT today on enwiki, could someone please also forward this updated date to wikitech-ambassadors)
