Our target is to have a completely reviewed trunk on January 31. We're currently at 691 new + fixme revisions on trunk, which by our projection puts us about 10 days behind schedule.

Rob Lanphier continued to coordinate the efforts from Wikimedia engineers to review commits to the MediaWiki codebase, as part of the Wikimedia engineering 20% policy. Mark Hershberger started to send automated reminders to developers whose revisions are marked as "fixme" in Code review. Progress on unreviewed commits is tracked through the 1.19 revision report and the Code review statistics. As of December 31st, about 600 revisions remain to be reviewed in trunk. Brion Vibber proposed a feature freeze in trunk, to catch up on code review, instead of branching the code for release.

We set up a new site for deployment test at http://deployment.wmflabs.org/ this site is running on Wikimedia Labs and is running the latest svn head of mediawiki 1.19, together with the full db clone of simple wiki database and it's planned to create few more wikis with a small subset of pages from other wmf wikis to properly test all possible issues related to the deployment of 1.19 to the cluster. If you have an account on labs you can ask User:MarkAHershberger for shell access, to help with testing.
