This month saw a big focus on hiring the QA Engineer and Volunteer QA Coordinator. We also continued to be focused on testing Article Feedback (including via an event on IRC with OpenHatch and new testing volunteers), and are working to get beta labs fit for use as a test environment for AFT and Editor Engagement (E2).

Hiring a QA Engineer remains a high priority. Article Feedback Version 5 is now on 5% of Wikipedia, with a plan in place to increase that percentage over the summer. AFTv5 is being praised highly by the Wikipedia community, although a small number of power users are experiencing a particular problem. We isolated that problem and have a potential fix in place for deployment July 24. Work on the labs beta cluster continues, with AFT and TimedMediaHandler first priorities and the Editor Engagement project to follow. No community test events are planned right now, although the groundwork is in place for community test events related to Bugzilla tickets for Extensions and to the Visual Editor.
