Hi all! Here are the minutes from this week's ArchCom meeting. You can also find the minutes at <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_committee/2017-03-15>.
See also the ArchCom status page at <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_committee/Status> and the RFC board <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/mediawiki-rfcs/>. Here are the minutes, for your convenience: Recent Activity: * etcd under consideration for configuration management, see <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T156924>. * Adam Shoreland (addshore) is working on an extension for transferring files from Wikipedia to Commons, with the full history intact. See <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T140462> * Input wanted on overriding namespaces defined in extension.json, see <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T160462> and the “Letting configurations override namespace registration of extensions” thread on wikitech-l. * Some activity regarding error message i18n on the RFC on JSON validation: <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T147137>. Past session on MobileFrontend requirements: * Detailed notes at <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Reading/Web/Projects/OCCAM/ArchCom-03-15-2017>. * We had a presentation and Q/A session on hangout, with notes taken on IRC, and some questions taken from IRC. We failed to get the youtube stream working, but we did not max out hangout. * Using a video conference for a high level overview session seems moderately successful, with room for improvement on the details. ArchCom will consider this mode for some future public meetings. We may try a different video conference service next time. Has anyone tried Spreed <https://www.spreed.me/>? We could even host it, see <https://nextcloud.com/webrtc/>. Upcoming RFC discussion, Wednesday, March 29: * “Canonical data URIs and URLs for machine readable page content” <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T161527>. * The discussion will take place in the IRC channel #mediawiki-office on Wednesday 21:00 UTC (2pm PDT, 23:00 CEST). -- Daniel Kinzler Principal Platform Engineer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. -- Daniel Kinzler Principal Platform Engineer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
