== Potentially of interest ==
Next week we will begin having "SWAT deploy team" windows. The difference between these and the previous "Lightning Deploy" windows is that: A) these are twice a day and an hour long (vs once a day and only 30 minutes) B) they are run by experienced deployers, who will deploy things on behalf of others (who don't have deploy privs/experience)
