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/2017-06-07>.
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 RFC: “Move most of MediaWiki within a /core folder” https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T167038 and “Make MediaWiki Core a Dependency of MediaWiki” https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T166956. The initial reaction from ArchCom after very brief review was: “sounds scary, why do we need this?”. * Kevin Smith to take on a more active role in RFC discussions and other ArchCom related processes. * Discussion is ongoing on the charter proposal https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_committee/Charter * The RFC for adding an index on rc_this_oldid is entering the last week of the last call period https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T139012 * RFC discussion next week: “Reading List” https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T164990. A brief discussion by ArchCom revealed that this is distinct from the idea of multiple watchlists since it’s cross-wiki, and is less complex than cross-wiki watchlist(s) because no notifications or feeds are needed. As always, the discussion will take place in the IRC channel #wikimedia-office on Wednesday 21:00 UTC (2pm PDT, 23:00 CEST). -- Daniel Kinzler Principal Platform Engineer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
