== Callouts ==

logstash-beta?  AWight is unable to find some logs, which are present on
fluorine-beta.
* CommTech would appreciate help reaching consensus regarding the way
preferences are handlled:
https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2017-October/088980.html
* DBAs have disabled Wikidata RC syndication on Commons and ruwiki, and are
working on purging existing WD RC rows on those wikis.
  This is because of performance and table size reasons.

=== Contributors ===

 Parsing 
* cscott's ping to wikidata team: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/379669/ --
Parsing is not blocked on this per se, but this is something that cscott
has been contributing to as part of a longer term project. Using SoS to
ping wikidata on a stalled review for him.
* Updates
** Parsing team offsite next week -- will be absent at next week's SoS.
** Parsoid code to use the updated Templatedata format now merged
(suggested by Thiemo at Wikimania 16). It is in the beta cluster and needs
testing before being deployed.
** We are likely to merge both the  wrapper code as well as the
 code at the same time so that we can bump the HTML version
number once.
*** Looks like cxserver/CX has patches to handle section output. Is MCS
ready to handle Parsoid's section output? C.Scott said he is going to add a
patch for VE to handle this, but, if VE folks want to tackle that on your
own, please do so.
