Agenda and minutes from the second quarterly review of the Engineering Community Team:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Volunteer_coordination_and_outreach/ECT_July_2013_quarterly_review Some highlights: * The Community Liaisons (coordinated through the Legal & Community Advocacy group) will continue to work on specific big changes that require a lot of communication and feedback facilitation, such as VisualEditor, Flow, and some mobile changes. Engineering Community Team will continue to support communication about smaller deployments and about general engineering activity. * We're cautiously optimistic about helping volunteers learn to write more automated browser tests for gadgets, to reduce breakage. Chris McMahon has just started: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/qa/2013-July/000198.html * Now that Tool Labs users can use replicated databases, I need to reassess the pain points of current and potential users. I anticipate we'll learn some of that during the documentation sprint this week: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/labs-l/2013-July/001428.html I was remiss and did not publicize the first of the ECT quarterly reviews, which took place in February; agenda and minutes are here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Volunteer_coordination_and_outreach/ECT_Feb_2013_quarterly_review You can keep up on our work more frequently here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Platform_Engineering#Engineering_Community_Team and you can read about our goals for the next year here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Engineering/2013-14_Goals#Wikimedia_Technical_Community Thank you. -- Sumana Harihareswara Engineering Community Manager Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
