Announcements, Information, Questions

Any debrief from Collab Jam?
- Went well. We shared our plans with a lot of people
- We heard about a few possible collaborations with other teams
- Some concern about a lot of undocumented conversations
Developer Wishlist voting results: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_Wishlist/2017/results
- Discovery-relevant? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_Wishlist/2017/Tools_(Phabricator,_Gerrit,_etc.)#Re-evaluate_how_we_implement_phabricator.27s_search_engine
If you have requests for new/upgrades to server hardware over the next 18 months, talk to GL and Katie right away
- Logstash needs new hardware--not clear what responsibility Discovery might have for it
Katie is slammed with planning this week, so might move meetings around
If you have ideas or concerns about how Discovery or Product are structured or functioning, share them with Katie or your manager or Kevin so they can get included in the ongoing conversations

Are we blocked?

Other dependencies (in either direction) which don’t need to be called out as “blocked” (e.g. are progressing smoothly, have no urgency, etc.)
