Chris, Sam, Antoine, Faidon, and Ryan met in San Francisco the week of May 7 to bootstrap work on this project. Current focus is getting media handling working smoothly.

2012-05-15
As of May 15th: 
 * Apaches instances have been build 100% using puppet classes, the old one will be removed. All queries (thumbs/regular text/bits) hits the applications apaches, upload.beta.wmflabs.org pointing to the IP address shared by all wikis.
 * MediaWiki logging is fine.
 * Blocker: /home/wikipedia needs a decent place with lot of disk space to host MediaWiki checkouts, MediaWiki logs and syslogs.
 * Blocker: no syslog-server yet, since it conflicts with a base class which is always installed.
 * MediaWiki configuration files in progress of being merged from prod to labs.
