Here is your weekly dose of deployment highlights! Full schedule always available at: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments
Next week's: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments#Week_of_August_19th Highlights below... == Monday == * We'll be enabling Ceph on production. Ceph is used for storage of media files (eg: images, videos, etc). More (very detailed) information about this can be found at: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ceph * We'll be deploying OAuth to the set of test wikis (test.wikipedia, test2.wikipedia, mediawiki.org, and test.wikidata.org). More information about the OAuth work can be found at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Oauth * MediaWiki 1.22wmf13 will be deployed to the second group of wikis, ie: all non-Wikipedia project sites. For the list of important changes, see: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.22/wmf13#Important_Changes == Tuesday == * Notifications (Echo) will be deployed to the first set of non-english pilot sites, specifically French and Polish. See the Notifications release plan at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Echo/Release_Plan_2013 == Wednesday == * We will enable secure login (via HTTPS) by default. This means that all logged in users will read and edit the site via a secure connection over HTTPS. Given some restrictions/internet blocks in some jurisdictions, we will disable this feature on specific language wikis. There is a page on MetaWiki explaining this, with a link to the Wikimedia blog post that originally announced the plan here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/HTTPS This is a first step along a route to improved security while also taking into account internet censorship in certain jurisdictions. There will be more communication about this rollout on Monday the 19th. == Thursday == * MediaWiki 1.22wmf13 will be deployed to the last group of wikis, ie: all Wikipedia project sites. For the list of important changes, see: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.22/wmf13#Important_Changes If you have any questions, please let me know.
