Wikimedia Release Engineering Team/Time off

I want to take time off, what do I do?

 * 1) Put it in the weekly team meeting etherpad in the "Vacations/Confs/etc" section.
 * 2) Please do this as soon as you know/are sure of the time off.
 * 3) This helps us make sure we have effective coverage for our services (or at least we know what we're getting ourselves into).
 * 4) Put it in Google Calendar (so we don't schedule meetings with you).
 * 5) Set it to an "All day" event.
 * 6) But change the "Show you as" to "Busy" (from "Available").
 * 7) Have it repeat for the length of your vacation.
 * 8) Put it in the Phabricator calendar:
 * 9) This shows you're not available via a red dot next to your username everywhere (Maniphest, Differential, etc).
 * 10) Don't forget to add Release-Engineering-Team tag to the event.
 * 11) Put it in Namely. (WMF employees).
 * 12) how.

If unsure, talk to your manager first informally, then send email to your manager, Safeguard (or their partner), with a cc to hr@wikimedia.org. Your manager will reply with conformation and Safeguard will track it.
