Ran small-scale (c) visual-diff testing comparing Parsoid/JS & Parsoid/PHP rendering (d) HTML string diffs comparing Parsoid/JS & Parsoid/PHP HTML and fixing bugs. Might roll out a larger-scale string diff testing soon. ** SRE has readied 2 servers in the production cluster with Parsoid/PHP for benchmarking. Awaiting some config patches to be deployed. ** Still aiming for a Parsoid/PHP deployment ot the production cluster in < 2 weeks. This only directs reparse traffic and NO LIVE client traffic. That will come in maybe another 2-3 weeks after this first deployment. ** Waiting for Services (Core Platform Team) to greenlight RESTBase integration in the beta cluster for Parsoid clients (VE, CX, MCS) to run their tests against Parsoid/PHP. === UI Standardization === * Updates: ** OOUI v0.35.0 release on the way https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/GOJU/browse/master/History.md, 1 breaking,1 deprecating change, IE 6 fallbacks removal *** Remove deprecated infuse-by-id feature *** icons: Change and rename 'unTrash' to 'restore' *** WikimediaUI theme uses `px` for all properties, where font-scaling is not implied necessity.
