What John said, plus moving away from tool labs seems like a step in the wrong direction. Tool labs has 3 members of ops working on it, plus other volunteer roots. If you started your own "graduate labs" environment, I doubt you'd have anywhere near the same level of support, and would instead be splitting the limited labs resources. That said, some projects/tools should be moved off into their own labs projects (quarry and wdq come to mind), but trying to build an alternative tool labs isn't going to work. -- Legoktm _______________________________________________ Labs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/labs-l
