Mailing list maintenance window - 2015-06-02 17:00 UTC to 19:00 UTC
I'll be taking the mailing list server offline for a (hopefully) short
window.
At the time of this announcement, this will be simply to process a single
request. There is a good chance another request or two will be appended to
this one before the actual window arrives.
The downtime will start on 2015-06-02 @ 17:00 UTC and end at 19:00 UTC.
Current Tasks:
T100707 - Rename pywikipedia-l to pywikibot
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T100707
Some may recall the last mailman maintenance window wasn't without
incident:
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incident_documentation/20150519-Mailman
This has been taken into account, and further testing of changes and
mailman both before and after maintenance have been expanded.
During this time, all mailing list traffic, as well as online archives, may
become unavailable. Once the window has ended, all mail routing should
resume normally, and any messages sent during the window will then be
delivered accordingly.
All associated tasks and changes are linked from
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T100711.
This mail has (initially) been send to the lists administrators list and
wikitech-l. Please feel free to forward to any other lists or parties that
would need to know about this maintenance window.
