Not that I know of.  What sort of changes were you expecting?

I think that what MZMcBride meant is that the page looks like as if 
there were supposed to be a sidebar on the left and some upper menu or 
banner. It looks like as if only the main content was loaded.

So I think the margins should either be removed or filled :-). Or maybe 
redesigned completely or just redirected to the TS wiki page. The last 
seems to me most useful for visitors.

Cheers,
Nux.

Given WMDE's recent fundraising changes which now allow sup-
porting WMF directly, are there any plans to blur the clear
distinction between WMF's farm and the Toolserver database
servers with the accompanying headaches in the near future?

I've asked WMF (i.e., Tim) to let us know about schema changes in 
advance next time, so we can apply them with less service interruption.

Is this something we can do about in the future? If somebody notices
that WMF is planning schema changes or master switches or cluster
splits should they file a JIRA ticket, or poke you on IRC or
something?
