As you know, one of the quickest ways of getting your fix backported to production (from master) is to use a SWAT window: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/SWAT_deploys
And now, I ask for new volunteers!
Would you like to help make developers happy and be a part of the crew of people who deploy during these windows? Of course you would!
These happen twice a day every work day (except Friday, naturally) at 8:00 SF (16:00 UTC currently) and 16:00 SF (00:00 UTC).
We're open to both those already familiar with deploying to Wikimedia servers and those who are not; we're friendly and willing to teach :)
Requirements are: * A shell account on production ** See: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requesting_shell_access * Availability during one of the two windows on a regular basis * A willingness to learn and being comfortable with asking for help/advice when you aren't sure, especially when you aren't sure what a particular patch will actually do in production.
What you'll get: * Fancy access to deploy to "A Top 10 Web Property"(TM)(C) * Support from current SWATers to get started * A t-shirt and/or sticker if you end up breaking, AND FIXING, production
Let me know if you're interested!

Hi Greg,
I'm willing to help (mostly morning SWAT). I've never deployed anything so I'll need some help for the first patches.
David.

I'll echo exactly what David said.
I'm willing to help (essentially only morning SWAT due to being in Europe) I've never deployed anything on the cluster so I'll need some help for the first patches.
