Hi.

The Gerrit installation at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org is currently a
critical part of Wikimedia's development infrastructure. I think it's
becoming increasingly clear that Gerrit needs love. To me, this means:

* working with upstream to make incremental improvements to Gerrit (such
as the great work that Christian A. and Chad H. have done) and having at
least one person dedicated to general upkeep of our Gerrit installation; or

* figuring out whether a different solution such as Phabricator makes
sense (expensive and fraught).

The Wikimedia Foundation currently has staff or contractors dedicated to
maintaining human resources software and Bugzilla, but perhaps it could
spare the additional resources for a person dedicated to Gerrit or another
code review tool. Or this is possibly an area where a Wikimedia Chapter
could provide support.
