I'd like to float the idea of having the new beta icinga alerts sent to the #wikimedia-qa irc channel and also inviting labs-morebots into the channel so that !log messages can be recorded to the SAL for beta [0] from there. My thinking behind this is that beta needs an equivalent of #wikimedia-operations. Right now things related to this are split across #wikimedia-labs and #wikimedia-qa in a semi haphazard fashion. Tech discussions of beta tend to happen in #wikimedia-labs and testing related (and team) discussions tend to happen in #wikimedia-qa. As recent email threads and face to face feedback have confirmed there is a lot more usage of beta than the team managing it knew. Consolidating these conversations and publicizing where they happen seems like a great way to bring this emerging community together for our common goal of increasing the production features and stability of the Wiki[mp]edia family of wikis.
