I just deleted the last Precise instances that were remaining in Labs, and we've closed https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143349 and related subtasks.

I'm very impressed at how responsive and cooperative you, the users, were with this awkward process. We were able to locate responsible people for every single affected project, and folks were especially gracious and helpful with the upgrades and migrations. Thank you!

Keep in mind that the same process is likely to happen again with Trusty in 2019. So if you're building new systems today, best to start with Jessie (which is slated to last until at least 2020) and postpone the headache.

Nice work, everyone!

There are now four days remaining until the Ubuntu Precise deadline.

On Friday the 31st I WILL DELETE remaining precise instances, both those that are currently running and those that are in a SHUTOFF state.

The good news is, we're almost to the goal. The remaining hosts that I know about are:

analytics: limn1
openstack: labs-vmbuilder-precise  (which is mine!)
wildcat: dannyb


Please let me know if you need additional assistance with any of the above. Documentation for this process can be found at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143349.
