- Filed a few RT tickets for things that Ops has to do
- I'm starting to get in the habit of doing this more and more.
- Get a multicast listener in place (for Bugzilla:28613)
- Ghostscript needs to be updated on Commons (for Bugzilla:26388)
- Update mailman installation (for Bugzilla:22708)
- Update rsvg installation (for Bugzilla:24000)
- Redirect mail traffic from wikimedia.com to wikimedia.org (for Bugzilla:28314)
- Did a triage of caching problems
- I felt like it was really quite sucessful since some bugs that hadn't been dealt with now had a way to be handled.
- hiwiki requested activation of a lot of extensions
- This meant that we really need to comminicate better how all this happens to the various communities. I left a comment explaining WMF policy.
- Spent Wednesday touching base with a lot of people
- I still haven't heard back about IWTransclusion, though.
- Got a db dump from a user
- From this, I found a problem with the installer and filed a new bug
Daily Log
[edit]- Got together a list of bugs for a weekly triage report focused on caching
- Applied patch from Special:PasswordReset listed on Special:SpecialPages when Authplugin allowPasswordChange() is false. Got recognition on IRC from submitter.
- hiwiki requested activation of a lot of extensions. I left a comment explaining WMF policy so they would have a better understanding of the process.
