Scrum of scrums/2014-11-19

From mediawiki.org

Facilitating: Andrew Otto


Language

[edit]
  • Working on translation dashboard feature for Content Translation
  • Requires we have a shared database accessible from all wikis
  • Need support from Ops:
   ** Review of sql for shared database
   ** Instructions on what is needed for deployment
   ** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T1254
  • Work on analytics for Content Translation delayed until prod release due to instability of data in beta-labs:
   ** EventLogging data may be destroyed at any time in course of feature testing
  • Niklas has updated translation memory from Solr to ES:
   ** Says initial tests show an order of magnitude increase in speed
   ** Low risk but will monitor for any issues.

  • SHA-1 file storage patch will happen this week, we think. Oh, that's Chris's gerrit patch that needed our attention. Gilles says he's going to review it again this week.
  • Working on some stash and chunked upload bugs this week, should make things less terrible
  • Reference thumbnail fix going out in SWAT tonight, should fix past issues

Timo

[edit]

...is his own team now - sorry, just don't know where else to put it this week.

  • Worked with Parsoid on CSS for Cite references
  • CSSJanus upstream review was blocking Flow. Patch merged last week in node-cssjanus. Made minor release and published on npm.
  • Cross-project collaboration ("js-global") between CLDR, jQuery Foundation and myself and Siebrand and Niklas as WMF - for standardisation on message localisation and plural/date-formatting rules in javascript - has been picked up again after a few weeks of silence.
