Hi all, just a quick heads-up: given the small issues we experienced last time, which we've found to be unrelated to the switch itself, we scheduled a new switch-over test lasting 24 hours, which is scheduled to start tomorrow (April 5th) at 14:00 UTC. We don't expect any significant user impact. Anyways, should you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact us here or on IRC (#wikimedia-services / #wikimedia-operations @ freenode).
