Hello all!
While aligning elasticsearch / logstash / kibana versions on deployment-logstash2, I am running into some issues. Logstash does not want to restart...
This is tracked on phabricator [1], I'll let you know as soon as I know what is going on...

Have fun!

logstash is up and running again on deployment-prep. For those who are interested, the logstash plugins that we used were deployed correctly, present on disk, but not reloaded by logstash. The reloading part is triggered by puppet [1], but that code does not seem to be robust enough.
Logstash was down and logs were not collected between ~12:40 and 15:15 UTC.
All my apologises for this inconvenience....

More details:
This talk is a follow-up of the Wikimedia Developer Summit session https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0JdtauJkKs and will address the next set of questions gathered via a voting survey for the summit:
For WMF dev teams, what is the right balance between pushing own work versus seeking and supporting volunteer contributors?
Do we have a plan to bring our developer documentation to the level of a top Internet website, a major free software project?
How can volunteers bring ideas and influence the WMF annual plans and quarterly goals? (Currently, when plans are published it's too late)
What vision do you see for MediaWiki and volunteer developers five years from now?
Looking forward to your presence!

This is a reminder of Wednesday's RFC discussion about Compacting the Revision Table[1]. This RFC also touches upon aspects of Multi-Content Revisions[2] and is related to the need for storing longer revision comments[3], which we discussed last week.
There is a big schema change up for review, to showcase what exactly is planned [4].
The discussion will take place on the #wikimedia-office channel on Freenode, on Wednesday May 10, at 21:00 UTC (2pm PDT, 23:00 CEST). Depending on the outcome of this discussion, another meeting about this topic may be scheduled for a later date, at a different time, to accommodate people in other time zones.

Hi all,
We have central auth, global user pages and stuff like that, do we have some kind of global preferences too? So that one could set interface language to English and have it like that on every single project they work on?
I don't really see a need to have different projects with different interface language but if there was a need for this we could probably make it possible to override (like add language "Same as meta" which would be default option, or something of that kind).
Maybe something that makes this possible already exists but I am not aware of that.

Hi Petr,
an user can archieve that aim using global script and then viewing all projects they want to change. AFAIK this was requested in the community wishlist.

There's an RFC about that: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/ Global_user_preferences
A lot of things that should be global aren't global.
Global user accounts are really global user names, passwords, and email addresses, and not much else. User ids are not quite global—there is a central id, but also a local id, and my impression is that the local id is used more often. E.g., for analyzing contribution listing and statistics, the local id is needed.
Other things I can immediately think of that should be global and aren't: Contribution listings, cookies, watchlists. And if we move away from user accounts and identities, then also gadgets and templates (and of course modules). (If I could have only one of all of those things, I'd vote for global templates without any hesitation.)
Global notifications (a.k.a. Echo) are available, which is nice. Global user pages and common.js and common.css are possible, which is also nice. Some people use global js to auto-set preferences in all wikis upon opening them, which is a rather awful hack, but it does show that global preferences are in demand.
