**Deployment Agenda**
~~- Deployment date: 2021-07-20~~
~~- Catch-up period : 2021-07-20 ~ 2021-07-22~~
~~Due to caching, not all users were seeing the new version. The cached articles were displaying the old version of the language switcher. The cache tends to clear completely within two days, which is why we exclude these two days in analysis~~
~~- Post-deployment: 2021-07-23 ~ 2021-08-22~~
- Deployment date: 2021-06-22
