[edit]
  • #57 Firefox OS Exploraton: no progress from Adam's side
  • #2 ESI headers or GIFification

  • #108 memcached / httpGet config pull: NEW card, there's a (mostly isolated) issue with configs being pulled, may need Platform's help
  • #109 Refreshing bots: refreshing bot zombie clones are back. Whack-a-mole, X-Frame-Options, or both?

Language

[edit]
  • The team has agreed on the caching architecture with Gabriel in a meeting in Spain. In this sprint we are implementing this in labs and we'll need ops Gabriel to review that it's something that is a correct step towards production.
  • Migration of translation memory to ElasticSearch - Niklas L. is working on it, now on vacation. It's in progress and will need assistance from Nik E., but not immediately.
