I'd be open to tech talks or a hangout style office hour on the next set of questions... grouped by theme is a good idea.

Apologies on the delay. Approved.

This is how I have seen it referred to in the past on other engineering teams: "Research Spike"

We will post a roadmap based on milestones defined in the Annual Plan process. Presently we have a draft of those here:
https://office.wikimedia.org/wiki/Product/Roadmap_for_2016-17 and the plan is to add those to the public wiki soon. This was built from efforts as we planned them for the Annual plan here:

Approved NDA access for this request. @Deskana thanks for changing back to original language. Sent this conversation to legal for further understanding.

Updated slides in description: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1AthAyBJF8zdbAQToIHAEHHmYHMXICprNYrI2ws29Qng/edit#slide=id.ga1656eff4_0_0

Lindsey Anne Frankenfield will be his manager but she is just starting. @TrevorParscal is technically his manager and can approve this.

Approved

thanks @Awjrichards and +1 @ksmith. I do think milestones could play a role for sure. The initial roadmap with the teams was a basic effort to just illustrate the need. We all have goals already and they are essentially the building blocks. Just need a clean way to show them that does not require extra work or a new process. Need to investigate if you can take a table cell from one page and essentially pass that to another and we'd be on a quick path to having a public roadmap. We posted the previous and I'm going to at least update that for the moment as we discus.

Sorry for the delayed response.

+1 to the recommendation. Start simple.

Approved

believe this was done

I will add my approval if required from the Ops side.

I approve access request per ops requirement procedure.

@JKatzWMF yes I plan to follow up with them shortly to get validation on our interpretation and will ask for this as well.

The purpose of Phabricator as I understand it is to complete task oriented work.

Approved

@dr0ptp4kt if @Stu and @ori have been updated like myself I believe you can close this one out now.

Approved

Please also double check @Stu and @ori accounts to make sure they have same access. Thanks.

Can we fast track this please as we are seeing all sorts of movement on our rankings. I am unable to request this. I just need the https versions of the sites turned on please.

@Wwes is the official one.

Let's give Stu the missing 15 https sites and resolve this ticket, then discuss automating the process as a separate thing.

While we wait for a simple non tedious manual solve, how about we start with these for wikipedias:
en, de, zh, ru, it, es, fr, ja, pt, tr, nl, pl, ar, ko, hi
and wikipedia.org

I approve as manager
