Hi all, Here are the minutes from this week's TechCom meeting:
* Discussed: Strategy for PHP interface changes < https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T193613>. This RFC proposes policies and strategies to mitigate problems arising from the need to change PHP interfaces that are implemented by classes defined by extensions. In particular, it proposes a separate policy that defines the stable interface for use by extensions, see <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Stable_Interface_Policy>. * Discussed: Reconsider how we run QUnit unit tests < https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T212521>. This RFC proposes restructuring unit tests away from using QUnit. * Discussed: Serve Main Page of WMF wikis from a consistent URL <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T120085>. This RFC proposes serving a wiki’s main page from the domain root. The configuration option has been merged as disabled by default, and the RFC is ready for discussion with stakeholders. * Discussed: Need to clarify consequences of approved RFC Define criteria for setting explicit PHP support target for MediaWiki <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T228342>. Guidelines established by this RFC should be available on mediawiki.org, including process for announcing changes to the PHP version required for core on wikitech-l. * Hosted IRC discussion on Core REST API namespace and version < https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T23248> Minutes: < https://tools.wmflabs.org/meetbot/wikimedia-office/2019/wikimedia-office.2019-09-25-21.07.html > Log: < https://tools.wmflabs.org/meetbot/wikimedia-office/2019/wikimedia-office.2019-09-25-21.07.log.html > * No IRC meeting next week You can also find our meeting minutes at <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Technical_Committee/Minutes>.
