Yet Beta Labs keep having serious outages on a weekly basis. Just a few days after you sent this email, mobile Beta Labs had a nearly full-day outage which caused serious headaches for both the mobile and VE teams.[1] I would totally love to stay on the existing Beta Labs cluster, but we just keep having these outages week after week, despite assurances that things would stabilize. This is a major pain point that we need to have addressed in some way or another. Would spinning up an Alpha Labs cluster (for experimental features) be a reasonable solution? 1. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72997 Ryan Kaldari
