- Hackathon a good time generally

Team Discussions
[edit]- Team demos—this is a good spot for 'em
- GitLab decision doc updates
- https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N7yjV255mshnpO7q-2lKD0brhENhRB-uUU6K3sN1Ow8/edit#heading=h.43mb2gr8akao
- find a different term for "production-critical" → "deeply connected"
- explicit about what this does to "done" for this project
- Changes definition
- Means consultation, will be ongoing, expecting that public release means consultation will happen
- ? Will we allow some MediaWiki extensions/skins to migrate if they are not WMF prod impacting?
- ? Will we try at all to make zuul talk to gitlab things?
- Phabricator tag to setup an async workflow for this
- How would we look for consensus on where a project lives
- WE6.2.3 Hypothesis session, next Monday
- Yakisfaction Sprint: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/board/7155/query/all/
Let's do some inbox triage: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/query/7vRDrcVnt8OI/#R
