Hi everyone, In order to avoid stomping on the Easter holiday in Europe, we're postponing the first day of the deployment of MediaWiki 1.20wmf01 Tuesday, April 10, 18:00-20:00 UTC (11am-1pm PDT): MediaWiki 1.20wmf01 deployment - test2, potentially mediawiki.org Wednesday April 11, 18:00-20:00 UTC (11am-1pm PDT): Potentially window for MediaWiki.org 1.20wmf01 deployment if needed Monday, April 16, 18:00-20:00 UTC (11am-1pm PDT): MediaWiki 1.20wmf01 deployment - Deploy to all non-Wikipedia sites (commons, Wiktionary, Wikisource, Wikinews, Wikibooks, Wikiquote, Wikiversity) -- potentially split into two deployments if needed Monday, April 23, 18:00-20:00 UTC (11am-1pm PDT): MediaWiki 1.20wmf01 deployment - Deploy to English Wikipedia Wednesday, April 25, 18:00-20:00 UTC (11am-1pm PDT): MediaWiki 1.20wmf01 deployment - Deploy to other Wikipedias Also, some bikeshedding on the branch name: I vote that the branch name to be wmf/1.20wmf01 , and subsequent deployments to follow that scheme. That way, we can still say 1.20wmf01 as shorthand, and people can figure out that "oh, you prefix wmf/ on the front for permissions reasons". Other work that's underway or needs to get underway: * Chad has started the work of converting make-wmf-branch to Git: https://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/tools/make-wmf-branch/defa… * Aaron is also working on the scripts for pulling our WMF-specific hacks and reapplying them in 1.20. * We still need to audit the scap/sync scripts to make sure that .git folder is being excluded on scap. Roan has started looking at that now. During the next few weeks while both 1.19wmf1 and 1.20wmf01 are out there, we're going to need to use both Subversion and Git for deployment-oriented code. Rob
