The minutes from TechCom's triage meeting on 2020-12-09. Present: Daniel K, Tim S, Dan A, Timo T. RFC: PHP microservice for containerized shell execution
- https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T260330 - Approved Create WikiTeq group on Gerrit - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T267213 - Daniel to update the page - Tim to create the Gerrit group RFC: Amendment to the Stable interface policy (Nov 2020) - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T268326 - Ready for Last Call? - Discussed deprecation logistics. Currently it’s possible to have only one day between soft and hard deprecation. Talking about increasing it to at least 3 months or one full release cycle (from start to finish, aka at least 6 months). RFC: Introduce PageIdentity to be used instead of WikiPage - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208776 - Ready for Last Call? - Some discussion about PageIdentity being global (with a Wiki ID) and not being a perfect drop-in replacement for Title because of that, because it suggests classes using PageIdentity support non-local pages. - Not ready for last call :) Will walk through some concrete examples for the transition from Title to PageIdentity to unblock. A suggested alternative: transition to LocalPageIdentity instead, and later to PageIdentity for users of Title that begin to support non-local pages. RFC: Expand API title generator to support other generated data - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T263841 - Tim will comment and ready for last call You can also find our meeting minutes at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Technical_Committee/Minutes -- Timo On Tue, Dec 8, 2020 at 2:52 PM Daniel Kinzler <dkinz...@wikimedia.org> wrote: > This is the weekly TechCom board review in preparation of our meeting on > Wednesday.
