Hi, for HTML version, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Scrum_of_scrums/2019-05-29
Thank you for feedback. As an experiment, this week's notes don't have any empty sections. That should make them shorter and easier to read. To make meeting notes even easier to read, is there a tool that would convert links to wikitext? * https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T221177 to [[phab:T221177]] * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/operations/puppet/+/506043/ to [[gerrit:#/c/operations/puppet/+/506043/]] * https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth/Personalized_first_day/Newcomer_homepage to [[Growth/Personalized first day/Newcomer homepage]] Željko -- = 2019-05-29 = == Callouts == * SRE offsite on the week on Jun 9. Probably a code freeze * Language still blocked on SRE: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/operations/puppet/+/506043/ == Audiences == === Contributors === ==== Community Tech ==== * Updates: ** Work on Dark Mode is delayed to ensure we are doing the right work with the right collaboration. We are currently updating all the Tool Labs tools we own to prepare for the Actor migration. If users or devs have issues with these tools, let us know. The work is moving quickly but due to some missing indices on the new tables in the replicas, our queries are much too slow. This is causing occasional application errors for users as the queries time out. ==== Anti-Harassment Tools ==== * Updates: ** We are near completion of the refactor of Block. There will be changes to the ways developers use Blocks. The work is done in this task primarily: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T222737. We will be sending an email to wikitech-l with details and examples. Most of the documentation is already updated or will be updated soon. ==== Editing ==== * Updates: ** Offsite June 3-7 ** Instrumenting Mobile Edit Cards https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=VisualEditor_on_mobile/Edit_cards *** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T222999 *** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T223651 *** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T221855 ==== Growth ==== * Updates: ** Mobile page of Newcomer Homepage https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth/Personalized_first_day/Newcomer_homepage *** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T220831 *** https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T219435 ==== Language ==== * Blocked by: ** SRE: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/operations/puppet/+/506043/ * Blocking: ** CentralNotice banner save timeouts: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T224598 === Readers === ==== iOS native app ==== * Updates: ** Continuing development on v6.3 - user testing last week *** Talk page MCS endpoint - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T221148 *** Talk page native work - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T215928 *** Link wizard in Editor - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T213979 *** Media wizard in Editor - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T209398 ==== Android native app ==== * Updates: ** Released minor update last week with bug fixes / minor navigation improvements. ** Continuing to build structured image caption editing. ==== Readers Web ==== * Updates: ** Summary: still trying to fix the browser tests, design and technical planning for the architecture and desktop refresh projects, and continuing ongoing development for the advanced mobile contributions and the MobileFrontend architecture investment projects. ** Responsive website (MinervaNeue / MobileFrontend / Related Articles): *** Advanced mobile contributions https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Advanced_mobile_contributions **** Style the history page for AMC users T219895 **** PageActions Menu should use Builder pattern and reuse existing Menu elements T221792 **** Updates to user page treatment (apply for IP address and always show toolbar) T220114 *** Invest in the MobileFrontend & MinervaNeue frontend architecture https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Projects/Invest_in_the_MobileFrontend_%26_MinervaNeue_frontend_architecture **** BetaOptInPanel should use ES6 classes NOT mfExtend T220847 *** Browser tests **** Minerva Node.js browser tests failing and not running against commits T223676 *** Miscellaneous bug fixes and maintenance T221624 ** Desktop website (Popups) *** Popups https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Page_Previews **** WMDE reference previews review and support ** Planning *** Design and MobileFrontend & MinervaNeue frontend architecture and desktop refresh planning for next fiscal year ==== Readers Infrastructure ==== * Updates: ** Work continues on PCS abstraction layer.
