==== Readers Infrastructure ====
* Updates:
** The /page/mobile-html endpoint is ready to be consumed. Please give
feedback, esp. if you see anything that needs to be changed.
** Structured talk page endpoint launched in the REST API
** SDC caption and Wikidata description edit suggestions endpoints launched
in the REST API
** Machine vision middleware project in progress:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Product/Machine_vision_middleware

==== Multimedia ====
* Updates:
** preparing for release of arbitrary statements to production commons

==== Parsing ====
* Updates:
**  Heads up for Services: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T226931 and
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T217540 -- Kiwix filed this about
reparsing support for renames / deletions of images. But this is not
necessarily Kiwix specific since presumably apps will also see stale
versions without Parsoid reparses. Change Propagation support seems to be
missing for these events.
**  Parsoid-PHP Port:
**  Porting parser tests infrastructure so we can run parser tests in PHP
instead of relying on JS+PHP hybrid testing as we have till now.
** Starting to port the rest of the mocha tests.
**  Setting up more CI tests to prevent regressions.
