The Wikimedia Engineering report for August is still a draft, the link to the September summary is a red link, and {{SoFixIt}} is not applicable. But WP:BRION is alive and kicking again.
Topic on Project:Village Pump
You gotta be kidding, "Previous reports" in the footer has three red links. :) m:Tech/News mostly replaced BRION. WMF reports are lagging behind due to some work shifts in their maintainers, AFAICS.
Well, those links worked seven years ago, before somebody intentinally "lost" his m+w passwords. :-| The new m:Tech/News/Latest is fine, I have a link to it on my user page.
The engineering reports have traditionally been published within two weeks after the end of a month. The reports for August and September were delayed due to several reasons, but the August report has now been published, and the September report is being drafted and will be published shortly.
That said, it's true that the engineering reports are very labor-intensive, and that's why we're considering replacing them by a more consistent combination of timely updates (in the form of Tech News and status updates) and quarterly retrospectives. See also the last paragraph of this wikitech-l email.
Hi, please let the first missing Wikimedia Engineering/Report/2015/January explain that the monthly reports are now finished for good, I still had a convoluted [[Wikimedia Engineering/Report/{{#time:Y/F|now-31days}}|Tech report]] for {{#time:F|now-31days}}
rendered as "Tech report for June" on my user page.
Thank you for following up: I'm waiting for the new system to be in place before announcing that the reports in their old format are officially been retired. See also T88468, T88470 and T24.
I've updated three related pages on this side:
- On Wikimedia Engineering/Report/2014 red link "2015" now goes to phabricator:tag/report/
- On Wikimedia Engineering/Report/2015/January phab:T88470 is flagged as "resolved".
- On draft m:Tech/News/2015/10 the issue is noted as "future change" announcing the tag.
