Reading/Multimedia/Standup notes/2017/April

Matthias

 * Prepare for 3d2png & Extension:3d deployment

Matthias

 * Deploy 3D

Matthias

 * Figure out why 3d2png won't run on beta
 * Mark: The window management systems sounded familiar - believe node-canvas (which is built as a binary) may use one of them...

Mark

 * I'm going to do my best to be awake and functioning today. I spent the past ~24 hours in a haze of sleep and fever. I apologize for missing things.
 * Have a bit of an interview later, will try to be there for that.

Chris

 * Get draft message for COM:VP about policy

Adam

 * Speaking about COM:VP discussion a bit
 * Triage for MMV bugs (sometime, next few weeks?)

Anthony

 * Wondered about morning/evening standups
 * Mark: We could probably rethink the scheduling, since Prateek is no longer involved usually?

Adam

 * Not much update
 * Triage set-up?
 * Orgchart changed!

Matthias

 * 3d2png (almost) working on beta (I think)
 * tech task review

James

 * Quarterly check-in – MM will be covered in the Reading one, not the Editing one. I'll still be part of it and help write the slides, of course.
 * Org chart – Got HR to change it over finally, sorry for the delay.
 * Reorg stuff – Unclear.
 * Annual Plan stuff
 * MW master now has jQuery 3 (not 1); prod will have 1 for a while whilst we fix all the breakages. Use $wgUsejQueryThree = false to use jQ1 if you need it.

Mark

 * Interviews, tech tasks, etc.
 * Will catch up on 3d2png stuff today
 * CL stuff also needs a check-in
 * Marginally less sick

Mark

 * Some MMV work, not much, but will start triaging more tomorrow.
 * https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/293695 could be reviewed. Krinkle took a look, jdlrobson hasn't chimed in yet, we can probably just go.
 * More interview stuff happening this week too

Chris

 * 3d communication stalled
 * Mark will take a second look at it tomorrow and chime in.

Matthias

 * Reportupdater data for UW errors
 * Investigate MMV "image won't load"

Mark

 * Triaging MMV today, sigh

Mark

 * Interview things

Adam

 * Email catch-up
 * Interview things also

Nirzar

 * Also job posting things - maybe have a lead that could work pretty quickly

Anthony

 * Getting up to speed
 * What to look at?
 * Mark: MMV, UW, 3D?
 * Adam: Cross-wiki upload?

Matthias

 * MMV "image won't load", not actionable at this point
 * Schedules 3d patch for deploy tomorrow
 * Bring Vagrant 3d in line with beta/prod 3d
 * Fixed UW error reportupdater config
 * Revied job candidate code

Mark

 * Did some candidate stuff yesterday, will be back to triaging today

Adam

 * Quarterly check-in (will discuss 3D work, transition)

Chris

 * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#Preparing_for_3D_models_on_Commons

Chris

 * Blog post draft work - phabricator ticket has some volunteers maybe
 * Patent/legal thing went off the rails a bit, but generally positive

Mark

 * Going to attempt more triaging of MMV today, maybe.
 * Would like to discuss mobile-ization of MMV after everyone's updates.
 * Also on discussion docket: 3D deploy timeline.

Adam

 * multimedia-team list back up and running
 * Blog post draft doc shared (no work yet...)
 * 3D design work potentially - and testing

Matthias

 * 3D is on beta
 * disable reuse/warn when license/attribution is missing

Discussion

 * FileAnnotations/OpenAnnotations (with special guest Prateek!)
 * Conference on Annotations later this month - do we want to present anything or discuss use on MediaWiki?
 * Lots of different use-cases for annotations in MW
 * Documentation of new spec for OA is not great
 * Probably not helpful to present FA at conference, since it doesn't comply with any OA spec
 * Lots of interest in annotations in MW though
 * MMV mobile targeting work - is it worthwhile to start now?
 * Mark will start on this today(ish)
 * 3D deploy timeline - when do we push this further (e.g. testwikis and mw.org)?
 * Adam not opposed to us pushing mail to commons-l
 * Should delay push to prod until we've evaluated it fully
