Faidon,
Fantastic! I didn't know we had an internal backport already. :)
Gabriel basically just told me to use v0.10 because that's what he was
moving to for parsoid. So... v0.10!

I haven't looked at your document yet, but a quick note on that: I have
nodejs 0.10 backported packages ready for about 10 days now.
We typically avoid running multiple versions of the same package across
the infrastructure (and our apt repo isn't split like that, thankfully), so
I'd like to upgrade the existing users to 0.10. These are parsoid, statsd,
perhaps the not-production-yet limn, etherpad-lite and of these, parsoid is
the one with the most impact.
As such, we've agreed with Gabriel -which needed node 0.10 for rashomon
anyway- to test the new version under the parsoid RTT suite & subsequently
in the Parsoid Labs instance, before we go and upgrade production. (The
packages have been in parsoid.wmflabs.org's /root/ since). I haven't
heard since but as they don't /need/ a new Node version right now, I guess
this is low priority for them (and we, ops, don't care much either).
I think this would happen anyway before the PDF service would ever reach
production, but I think we can prioritize it a bit more and make sure it
will. Gabriel, what do you think?
Regards,
Faidon
