The labs people are so understaffed that two extremely important anti-spam bots recently had to be taken offline for much longer than in recent years. I propose Foundation management allocate the necessary resources and recommend the hiring of sufficient personnel and purchasing of sufficient, non NSA-compatible (i.e., discount and homebrew style) equipment to properly support both existing infrastructural bots and similar projects such as Dispenser's reflinks cache. I would also like to propose that the Foundation oppose the TPP provisions deleterious to our interests, and that this position be endorsed on the Public Policy list. > Then by definition it wouldn't be a third-party spam framework if WMF > was running it. I am not proposing that the WMF take the bots over, just meet their necessary service level requirements.
