Right now I'm waiting on the dust to settle with
the initial migrations
before we do another batch of extensions. We're working on l10n
updates right now, and fixing the meta-repo for checking out all
extensions. Also the wmf branch so we can get back to normal
deploys needs finishing. I don't want to put off migrations for a long
time, but I'd like to finish ironing out some of the rough edges before
we put another group through the process. I'm thinking...a week
maybe?
Would it be possible to the above mentioned TranslationNotifications
already? Since empty repository exists in git, it overrides the svn
version in
translatewiki.net and as result no messages show up for
translation. I don't want to add exceptions to our scripts, so the
only other option is to disable the group in twn until it is migrated.
I want to thank *everyone* for being so totally
awesome with
this process. I've put a lot of work into trying to do this right
and the feedback (positive and negative) has been immensely
helpful and at times nearly overwhelming :)
Big thanks to you, hashar and others for being so helpful finding
solutions to my numerous problems. I believe we can sort out all the
remaining issues in due time.
