[Wikitech-l] Deployment Highlights - week of July 1st 2013

Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the WMF deployment highlights. As always the full schedule can be found at: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments Specifically for next week: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments#Week_of_July_1st Of note for next week is that Thursday is a holiday in the US (Independence Day) and Friday many staff members will not be working as well. Also of note is Canada Day on Monday. So, it is a pretty holiday-packed week. As such, it'll be a generally quieter week deployment-wise. == Monday == * SUL (Single User Login) will be deployed to the test wikis plus mediawiki.org. This is part of the larger Auth Systems work: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Auth_systems/SUL2 * VisualEditor will be enabled and usable by all logged in users on English Wikipedia. You can see the full timeline for the rollout for the rest of the month here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor#Timeline == Tuesday == * ULS (Universal Language Selector) will be deployed to English Wikipedia. This is after successful rollouts to previous wikis the last two weeks. The next step for ULS after this is being enabled on the rest of the WMF wikis on July 9th. See: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/UniversalLanguageSelector/Deployment/Planning The rest of the week is pretty quiet due to the holiday, as noted above. As always, please let me know if you have any questions! Greg -- | Greg Grossmeier GPG: B2FA 27B1 F7EB D327 6B8E | | identi.ca: @greg A18D 1138 8E47 FAC8 1C7D |
