Hello!
Welcome to the special "Get ready for Wikimania!" edition of the roadmap and deployment update email.
This next week, in honor of Wikimania (and due to fact that many will be traveling, conference'ing, etc), there will be no planned deployments.
Of course, special circumstances may require an exceptional deploy, but we will not, for instance, be rolling out/updating to new MediaWiki versions.
Take a look at the upcoming (post-wikimania) items at: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments#Next_month
Any questions, as always, feel free to ask,
Greg
