The original discussion for this was here:

I am not sure if we can change the link in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/14295/ as it does indeed link to the wrong mail (sorry for the inconvenience).

I hope you can find more information in the above thread, Daniel.

Cheers, Denny

Hi all,

• Changeset https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/14295/, bug

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38705 about handling sites. The idea is to migrate from the "interwiki" table to the new "Sites" facility. RobLa mentioned two weeks ago that Chad seems to be working in a similar direction, but we haven't seen comments yet. No discussion is ongoing or any substantial feedback was received here as well, and it seems somewhat stuck. [...]

I hope this helps, Cheers, Denny

I would like some more information on this. The bug doesn't appear to even have the correct link for a discussion on this.

Redoing our interwiki code to deal with some mistakes we made in storage was something I was hoping to do. So if this is something hoping to replace the interwiki system I'd like to look over what the plan and overall idea is with this to make sure we don't repeat the same mistakes.
