Hello Ambassadors! See below for the deployment highlights for next week.
One thing I did want to additionally make note of for everyone on this list is that the CodeEditor extension will be updated to also allow editing of JavaScript and CSS files. See this bug more the details: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39653 However, that change (CodeEditor) isn't going live next week. Instead, it'll go out with the start of the MediaWiki 1.22wmf5 rollout, beginning on May 27th. I just wanted to give you all a little more lead time on it. Thanks!
