= 2015-01-20 = == Reading == === Android === * v2.1.137 promoted to production. * Reviewing Gather API re: multiple lists on multiple languages
=== Web === * Planning
=== iOS === * Beta has been rolled out to over 1000 testers, there have been 422 installs to date ** Is there a way to mesaure beta API usage (i.e. CPU time?) * Investigating using pageviews/top API as part of iOS "Explore" feature. Main blocker is filtering out things like non-main namespace, main page, Special: Search, etc. ** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T123442 (Dan: Joseph commented on this) ** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T118841 ? (Dan: this might be a misunderstanding, this sanitization is internal for privacy protection) ** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T121912 (Dan: redirects are quite confusing, I have some reading to do on this and it's hard to carve out time right now. But this is a priority) ** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T124082 (Dan: I'll comment on the ticket)
=== Reading Infrastructure === * Block: Could use a quick security look at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/264309/. * Hey Mobile people: Authmanager is replacing API action=login with action=clientlogin, and action=createaccount is going to completely change. We're currently aiming at end of February for the deployment. ** See https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/265201/ for details, then talk to Brad if you have questions.
== Technology ==
=== Research === * ORES serving ~100 external requests per minute * ORES moving to new meso-level (Labs < Meso < Prod) support -- blocked on Ops time to set up machines * See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T106867 -- working with Yuvi to flesh out sub-tasks -- need to know who to CC
=== Security === * kartographer, Ex:ORES, TextCat reviews in progress * Patch to parser/stripmarkers (T110143) deploying today. Contact Security if you see an issue with Xml::escapeTagsOnly.
=== Services === * Mobile Content Service pre-generation enabled :* running enwiki dump to populate it * /page/definition/ end point for wiktionaries :* functional only on en.wiktionary :* pre-generated * Move to Jessie and Node 4.2 :* Graphoid and Citoid - tomorrow :* CXServer - please check! ::* Apertium pkgs? :* Parsoid - needs testing
=== Release Engineering === * Blocking: none * Blocked: none * Updates: ** scap 3.0 will be tagged soon *** finalizing changes to simplify configuration deployment *** also working on puppet provider
=== Technical Operations === * Blocking: Research on ORES * Blocked by: none * Updates: * RESTBase/Kernel security incident * OTRS upgrade on Jan 28th to be rescheduled for Feb 2nd * HHVM 3.11 packaging moving on, almost done
=== Analytics === * Event Logging replication to analytics-store has been slow for a long time. Right now it's behind by about 3 days for a lot of major schemas. The problem is not obvious but we're on it. * Geowiki stopped updating on December 18th because one of the servers it was using was read-only, that's now fixed * Piwik has been optimized and is working reasonably well with the 15.wikipedia.org website, other **low** traffic apps/sites can use piwik now if they wish (already talking to reading about doing this with their iOS client)
== Editing ==
=== Parsing === * No blockers * Not blocking anyone (as far as I know) * Updates: ** QR today (done) ** RT test server (ruthenium) being updated to jessie and node 4.2 *** Needs puppetization fixes to migrate upstart files to systemD ** Parsoid node 4.2 testing with a focus on memory usage / GC behavior
=== Language === * Delay in adding parallel corpora tables for Content Translation ** seems to be resolving now such that we are going to add them ourselves
=== Collaboration === * Cross-wiki notification Beta Feature now on test and test2. * Coordinating on Flow dumps from production. Ariel is working on this - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T119511
=== Fundraising Tech === * Investigating queue outages during December campaign * Updating DonationInterface session handling to work with 1.27 ** Trying to figure out how to run CI tests against the core branch deployed in payments, with 1.27 as non-voting * More CiviCRM enhancements
== Discovery == * Portal A/B test is running * Working on Dallas cluster load tests, so far it doesn't appear to hold the peak load, more work is needed * WDQS Blazegraph 2.0 testing successful, will upgrade when GA is released.
