[Wikitech-l] Upgrade of 1.28.0-wmf.19 to group 1 is on hold

Hello, We are holding the deployment of MediaWiki version 1.28.0-wmf.19 due to a couple of bugs that have surfaced. The first one is that renaming a user was blocked [T145596]. Reported by K6ka, triaged by MarcoAurelio. The issue is fixed now thanks to Aaron Schulz and Kunal Mehta. The second blocker is way nastier. I have pushed the upgrade to group1. matanya (a long volunteer with a lot of technical patches) immediately reported the infoboxes on the Hebrew Wiki were on the wrong side, which prompted a rollback. [T145673]. Timo Tijhof and Kunal Mehta have found the root cause. I can speak for them as to who/when we will get a solution. For now. I am holding the train. Will reassess tomorrow and ideally push group1 at 19:00 UTC then follow with group2 at 20:00UTC. Stay tuned!
