Hi all!

Here are the minutes from this week's ArchCom meeting. You can also find the minutes at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_committee/2017-04-12.

See also the ArchCom status page at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_committee/Status and the RFC board https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/mediawiki-rfcs/.

Here are the minutes, for your convenience:

* RFC on Canonical data URLs goes on Final Call, see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161527

* New RFC: Deprecate using php serialization inside MediaWiki https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161647. ArchCom likes the idea, but the RFC could use some more fleshing out (what needs changing, what are the priorities, what should be kept and why, etc)
