Hey Dan,
thanks for the reminder! I'm worried there are a lot of community and GLAM
tools that rely on these datasets and are not yet transitioned to the new
data sources (like WikiProject popular pages
<https://tools.wmflabs.org/popularpages/>). Is there any chance we could
get a 1 month reprieve so that Community Tech could track down and fix some
of these tools before the deprecation? Sorry we didn't do this earlier. We
just hired a new developer though and I think this would be a good
on-boarding task for them. Let me know what you think.
