Updates:
* Continuing with the work to replace front end and backend of
http://stats.wikimedia.org : Wikistats 2.0, a mjor development is that
we will be able to import the edit history from labs rather than prod dbs,
huge advantage as this data is redacted and already public.*
* Working on launching RCStream replacement, review stream plus several
other real time streams. Will start working with collaboration
on augmented ORES recent changes stream.
* Started work on processing user_agent field on eventlogging tables, it
will be a json string like {"OS_Family": "Windows",
"Browser_family":"Chrome"....}
* Found issue with Heap on cluster, set up alarms, will be solved with

* Still waiting for hardware for pageview API, getting closer
