Now that 1.19 deploy has been completed, it seems a good idea to discuss
about our test wikis.
I see the following problems:

* labs.wikimedia are the old old old labs/test projects, These are no
longer (and any that still wanted - wmflabs)
* prototype.wikimedia are oldish test setups, and most should be moved
to wmflabs if still wanted
*.wmflabs.org are instances hosted on our Labs setup[1] which is our
virtuazlization

rules.

We have done it before, But that

Federico did this survey and mentioned it to me, and I asked him to put
it somewhere public. So now we have a list of all the test wikis that
