Tomorrow at 2100 UTC http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?hour=21&min=00&... , we're having an RfC/architecture meeting in #wikimedia-office on Freenode IRC https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_meetings/RFC_review_2014-08-13 . We'll talk about things discussed/made at Wikimania, and about some lingering next steps from previous RfC meetings.
Going forward, per the process at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_meetings , the architecture committee will be setting these up and announcing them.
(haven't put up calendar entries/links everywhere yet about this meeting, will do later today)

Summary and logs now up: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_meetings/RFC_review_2014-08-13#S...
Andrew Russell Green is the new CentralNotice Caching Overhaul - Frontend Proxy point person. Most of the rest of the TODOs remain the same. Yuri Astrakhan is checking with analytics to follow up on the image quality reduction.
Today's was the last RfC meeting coordinated by me. Going forward, per the process at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_meetings , the architecture committee will be setting these up and announcing them. Brion reported that there's discussion of how to expand the committee and delegate from it, but nothing's finalized yet.

Thanks again for running these -- We've got a pretty good idea how to go about them in future now that you've established a pattern!

We'll follow up on this once Tim and I are back from the UK and on regular schedules. I think we can get out of the "cabal of 3" situation and get more folks involved and this should help keep things active and fresh!
