Hi @CBlanton! These happen on Thurs at 23:00UTC. I've added you the training that happens in 2 hours, but don't feel obligated to attend that one on such short notice. I've also added you to following events, drop in when you're able!

Training completed!

Hey @CBlanton thanks for attending deployment training

I have a list of the next steps to take:

Attend MORE train trainings
- The goal is for you to feel comfortable deploying to production
Attend a train log triage meeting
- This is the meeting where we dig through our logstash to find problems caused by deployments
Improve any of the Training docs
- Write the docs you wish you'd read

Get creds to ship!

Once you feel comfortable with the deployment process, get the necessary credentials to deploy your own code.

Get shell and deploy access in production to do deployments, see
- Request shell access (as a WMF staff member you should just need to file the task and I can approve)
- For an example see: T104546: MediaWiki deployment shell access request
Gain access to merge changes in wmf deploy branches by being added to the wmf-deployments gerrit group
- (I can add you if you IRC/Slack me)
Join the operations mailing list (ops@lists.wikimedia.org)
- This is because announcements that could impact how and/or when to deploy things are primarily sent there.
