All details, of course, can always be found on the Deployments[0] page on wikitech; it is the canonical location for all deployment freeze (and exception) information. FTR: "High Priority" means security and data loss, really. There may be other exceptions but they need pre-approval from at least myself and sometimes Katie. * Week of Nov 23rd: No normal deploys - high prioity SWATs only (pre-approval from Greg needed) (Why: Thanksgiving) * Week of Nov 30th: No normal deploys - high prioity SWATs only (pre-approval from Greg and/or Katie needed) (Why: First of Dec Fundraising) * Week of Dec 7th: Normal deploy week * Week of Dec 14th: Normal deploy week * Week of Dec 21st: No normal deploys - high prioity SWATs only (and only on Monday and Tuesday) (pre-approval from Greg and/or Katie needed) (Why: End of year Fundraising) * Week of Dec 28th: No normal deploys - high prioity SWATs only (pre-approval from Greg and/or Katie needed) (Why: End of year Fundraising) * Week of Jan 4th: No normal deploys - high prioity SWATs only (pre-approval from Greg needed) (Why: DevSummit16 and WMF All Hands) * Week of Jan 11th: Resume normal deploy schedule Thanks and enjoy the break from breakages (hopefully!), Greg [0] https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments -- | Greg Grossmeier GPG: B2FA 27B1 F7EB D327 6B8E | | identi.ca: @greg A18D 1138 8E47 FAC8 1C7D |
