Hi everyone

We have another ArchCom-RFC IRC office hour coming up tomorrow. This week, we plan to discuss what parts of the notification infrastructure in Echo we can/should move into MediaWiki Core (T128351). Brion is shepherding this RFC, and pointed out on the task that we need "good enough interfaces in core that other extensions don't have to depend on Echo; also agreed that shipping Echo with core as a default extension makes sense." Much of the recent discussion on that task has been about what a reasonable level of abstraction, and avoiding generalizing from a sample set of 1 (as Tgr puts it)

Discussion time/place: #wikimedia-office: 2016-08-03 (Wednesday) 21:00 UTC (2pm PDT, 23:00 CEST)
