The next Wikimedia Developers Summit will be in January 2017. I plan to
hold an unconference session on development of an API for monitoring/stats
for dumps of all sorts. Let's get the discussion going now; what do you
want to see? Note that tis is for the rewrite so you need not be
restricted by how the dumps run now.
Add your thoughts, questions, comments to
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T147177 and feel free to forward this
where you think appropriate.
Thanks!
