TODOs from last time

 * Start thinking about deployment strategy for m8s, both for legacy deployments and the eventual k8s-only deployments
 * Not quite ready for a proposal but we'll be there soon
 * Dan: I'll be out on paternity leave in early May for a few weeks. Who wants to take over as lead for this meeting? Dancy will lead.

General
Giuseppe out the next two weeks. Dancy out next week.

RelEng
Question from Giuseppe:
 * PipelineLib patch to support copying out of run containers to the local context
 * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/integration/pipelinelib/+/674404
 * Include security patches in restricted image
 * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/674132
 * Does the pipelinelib build process ensure that the latest "latest" base images are used (i.e., always pull).?
 * Dan checked. Looks like docker build --pull is used.

Serviceops

 * We have an initial chart for MediaWiki to use in production - still amply to test
 * Would be nice to progressively add pieces to allow running a local dev wiki with that chart
 * All k8s clusters are now reinitialized and upgraded.
 * shellbox chart under review
