[Wikitech-l] Fwd: Request for a developer.
Forwarding to Wikitech-l on request :) Tom -- Forwarded message -- From: Jon Davies jon.dav...@wikimedia.org.uk Date: 6 September 2012 10:48 Subject: Request for a developer. To: Wikimedia UK lists wikimediau...@lists.wikimedia.org Having failed to find someone full time as a developer we are licking our wounds and thinking of a plan 'c'. Plan 'b' ,in the meantime, is to offer the support work for the fundraiser as a tender to an individual or individuals who would like to take on the work. Our deadlines are super tight so expressions of interest by 5pm on the 14th of September. Please pass this around to anyone you know, mailing lists etc. I have tried to post to wikitech-l but am not subscribed. Can someone make sure this happens? http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Request_for_Developer_tender Many thanks Jon -- *Jon Davies - Chief Executive Wikimedia UK*.

I looked for the search syntax in the Gerrit docs -- by the way, you should probably be looking in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/Documentation/user-search.html since that is congruent with our installation of Gerrit, version 2.4.2.

[Wikitech-l] Gerrit server issues
Hi everyone, Just letting everyone know that we're having some issues with the Gerrit server at the moment. Sometime since last night, a little over a dozen repositories (listed below) have gone a wonky and are missing their branches tags (objects are intact). We're working on recovering everything right now, and I'll be sure to let everyone know the status when we're done. In the meantime, if you use any of the following repositories, please refrain from trying to use them until I give the all-clear (I don't want to exacerbate any problems): In mediawiki/extensions/*: Comments, FacebookOpenGraph, GoogleDocs4MW, Nonlinear, OnlineStatusBar, Phalanx, RandomImageByCategory, SemanticImageInput, ShoutWikiAds, SphinxSearch, TranslationNotifcations In operations/*: debs/mysqlatfacebook, debs/wikimedia-lvs-realserver debs/wikimedia-search-qa, debs/wikistats, software Also note: operations/mediawiki-config was busted, but we went ahead and just rebuilt the repo from the live copy so as to not interfere with site operations. I thank you for your patience, and please find me on IRC if you have any questions or find other repositories that are misbehaving. -Chad ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] HTML5, it's a coming (again)!
I followed the links and wasn't aware of the recommendation to avoid using named entities besides the XML pre-defined ones. I added this to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/HTML5#Validity_issues , if it's covered elsewhere please edit away and/or replace with a link.

This is set for Monday 17th September at 18:00-20:00 UTC [2]. The intention is to set $wgHtml5 [3] to true everywhere. It's been running on MediaWiki.org and our 2 test wikis for quite a while, and other sites like translatewiki.net with no issues. The intention is to leave it enabled unless it causes major problems. If you're running an application that screen scrapes, shame on you; you've had enough notice to get it fixed! ;) Now is the time to fix up your scripts and programs (where necessary), tell your friends!
