Mobile

• #70 almost done, needs more testing
• #57 still has a patch in core that needs to be merged

Flow

• #83 (JS & PHP templating solution): we'll use Handlebars, since Knockout PHP implementation isn't ready, will need security review so switched Team dependency to security.
• #84 continuing to find Parsoid differences with PHP parser, no critical bugs.

Partners / Wikipedia Zero

• #54 Deprecation of WAP - Jon & Max were working on MobileFrontend pieces; there's no dependency on the W0 business team anymore. Per Faidon on call, the deployment actually is today, and there will be some minor VCL touchups. This can be closed.
• #2 ESI headers - no update
• #6 wikipedia zero portal - Praveena has scheduled a large meeting to discuss hosting
• #81 Support Contributory Features for HTTPS Operators - this was released this morning. This can be closed.
• #57 Firefox OS exploration - The ResourceLoader startup module patch was merged, not sure if it's deployed yet. The Redis integer serialization issue is a non-problem for RL in production, so https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/103407/ will be abandoned despite the more general bug.
