Quim Discovered a couple of issues with our 'secure' task hiding
- One is a weekness that could expose private tasks via herald: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T493
  - This is getting addressed upstream thanks to chase's proposal to epriestley: https://secure.phabricator.com/T6211
- Another issue was that the reporter of an issue wasn't actually able to access the maniphest task once it got submitted. https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T475
  - This is fixed by https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/163753/
Still working on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419 and https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T169

Elasticsearch upgraded on logstash100[1-3] to match production. Other packages upgraded etc. Hopefully increase stability. logstash upgrades to come per beta below (reedy)

Done Zuul cloner bug, https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71133
- should the bug be FIX/RESO? :)
MediaWiki extensions qunit jobs migrated to it but VisualEditor. New job pending testing by VE team. (Antoine, Timo)
Wrote a diagnostic tool for Zuul (zuul-gearman.py). Doc updated at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Continuous_integration/Zuul#Debugging need moaar doc
Zuul stop processing jobs from time to time. Gathered traces which indicates it is most probably an issue in Gearman server.
C Scott proposed to merge zuul-config and jenkins-job-builder-config repositories. Thoughts?
- Zeljkof, +1
- Antoine to fill a bug about it and handle the merging + updating related jobs.

logstash upgraded to 1.4.2 for testing, prior to deployment to production (reedy)
addition of redis yesterday broke beta labs https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71415 bug was closed but re-opened because editing is still busted and Preferences also (at least)
- greg to email deployers...

major updates to Echo and Flow repos in process
