[Wikitech-l] PyCon Financial Assistance and Development Sprints Info

[Brooke Storm]

Hello Folks!
For the Python enthusiasts on these lists, I’m signal boosting this message 
with info on PyCon dev sprints and financial assistance for the conference from 
a former Wikimedia colleague.
I plan to attend PyCon this year and am also hoping to figure out setting up a 
development sprint around some Wikimedia Cloud Services and Toolforge code.

I wanted to mention - feel free to pass this on publicly and in personal
invitations - that PyCon North America, mid-April in Pennsylvania,
offers financial assistance to people who would like to attend:

https://us.pycon.org/2020/financial-assistance/ 


The deadline for requesting financial assistance is 31 January.

PyCon loves to cross-pollinate with other free and open source
movements, and I know there are many Python developers in Wikimedia
tech. If Wikimedians want to use the April 20-23 in-person sprints

https://us.pycon.org/2020/events/sprints/ 
 (will be editable soon)

to work on Wikimedia-related Python tools together, that would be cool!

Best wishes.

[Wikitech-l] [Train] 1.35.0-wmf.16 status update (blocked)

[Brennen Bearnes]

The 1.35.0-wmf.16 version of MediaWiki is blocked[0].

The new version can't proceed to group1 and group2 [1] until this issue is
resolved:

* T243548: Elevated response times and CPU usage after deploy of
1.35.0-wmf.16 to all wikis
- https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T243548

If all issues are resolved before 15:00 PST, the train can resume today,
otherwise the train will resume Monday, February 3rd at the earliest.

Please note that there are no deploys during the week of the Wikimedia
Foundation's annual All Hands gathering.

Thank you for your help resolving these issues!

[Wikitech-l] MediaWiki 1.32 is End of Life

[Sam Reed]

As per the MediaWiki version life cycle [1], I would like to announce the
formal end of life (EOL) of MediaWiki 1.32 as of tomorrow, Friday January
24, 2019.

This means that MediaWiki 1.32 will no longer receive maintenance or
security backports. It is therefore strongly discouraged that you continue
to use it.

It is recommended to upgrade to MediaWiki 1.34 (due to become EOL in
November 2020), or less preferably to MediaWiki 1.33 (due to become EOL in
June 2020). The current Long Term Support (LTS) version of MediaWiki,
MediaWiki 1.31, is older (and downgrading is not supported), though the
next LTS (MediaWiki 1.35) is due to be released in June 2020, and will be
supported until June 2023.

MediaWiki 1.33 has the same supported PHP version of 7.0 (which is itself
unsupported upstream), in case you need longer to upgrade your systems.
MediaWiki 1.34 requires PHP 7.2.9 or later.

Thanks!

Re: [Wikitech-l] 14 January 2020 security incident on Phabricator

The spelling of ‘August’ is wrong in the second image on
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T243247. Looks fine in the code though so
not sure if fixed.

Re: [Wikitech-l] 14 January 2020 security incident on Phabricator

[Mukunda Modell]

The update was deployed last night just a bit after midnight UTC. Upon
logging in, anyone with an affected auth factor should see a notification
with instructions for how to proceed.

For the curious, you can see screenshots of the notification which I
attached to the task for this change, T243247 [1].

Re: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki has been upgraded to PHPUnit 8

[Kosta Harlan]

If you haven't been following this, to get a sense of the effort 
involved you can have a look at T192167 and the patches / tasks linked 
there. Thank you so much to all who worked on this, with special shout 
out to Max & Daimona.
