 * Prior to February 3
 * Set up development environment (mediawiki-vagrant, Bugzilla, Git/Gerrit)
 * Familiarised myself with MediaWiki's extension architecture / development
 * Tested patch for and closed
 * Filed and started work on
 * Studied and how Extension:WikimediaMessages modifies copyright message for editing pages


 * February 5
 * Finished and submitted and
 * Fought against Gerrit; figured out correct workflow


 * February 7–February 9 (code sprint)
 * Planning and preliminary work on Flow/Thanks
 * Worked on API for Flow Thanks
 * Finished basic backend


 * February 11
 * mediawiki-vagrant: Load time for a Flow board with Flow disabled (i.e. shows "taken over" message) is about 4.5s; with Flow enabled it's about 14-16s. Main bottlenecks appear to be additional CSS and jQuery.
 * Cut it down to 8-9s by using the first half of step 2 at User:Aaron Schulz/How to make MediaWiki fast. (Thanks lego!)
 * Merged changes to master branch into feature branch for Thanks
 * Rebasing causes all commits to the feature branch to be made again. How can I prevent this and just "sync" the two branches?


 * February 13
 * Changed FlowThankApi to no longer rely on information supplied through API request (prevent sending arbitrary notifications)
