Hi all! Here are the minutes from this week's ArchCom meeting. You can also find the minutes at <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_committee/2017-02-01>.
See also the ArchCom status page at <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_committee/Status> and the RFC board <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/mediawiki-rfcs/>. Here are the minutes, for your convenience: * New MW core team is taking shape. Relationship to ArchCom to be worked out. * IRC office hour on Feb 1st didn’t happen. The office hour about DB schema changes may happen on Feb 8th, pending confirmation from Brion. RFC Activity: * [[phab:T589]]: "image and oldimage table refactoring": '''Approved after last call'''. * [[phab:T66214]]: "Define an official thumb API": Converging on a solution. Proceeding to concrete planning & last call period soon. Please review and comment now. * [[phab:T122942]]: "Support language variants in the REST API": Marko and Corey driving the discussion forward. Both hope to find a solution that is consistent across APIs, but this requires coordination. * [[phab:T155813]]: "Decide on storage and delivery method for TemplateStyles CSS": The Reading team is working towards device-specific styling for templates. They are looking for feedback on whether to store these styles on a separate page, and how to deliver these styles to the user. After brief discussion, ArchCom tentatively favors inline delivery; similarity to template-data would be good for consistency. * Daniel is working on [[phab:T152425]]: "make use of varnish xkey" and [[phab:T154674]]: "HookRunner"; these are soon to become RFCs. -- Daniel Kinzler Principal Platform Engineer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
