Why is the pageviews goal centred on "keeping the
lights up"
Because a new service deployed always needs mainatenance regarding
availability, monitoring and correction of operational bugs and that comes
before new feature deployment. Let me give you an example: Pageview API now
has less that desirable response times cause it is running without proper
caching (

one need to be addressed before adding new features.
That is not to say we are not listening to our users, we have a session at
the mediawiki summit arround Pageview API and that is the time to bring
your new feature requests. We will see common patterns, evaluate our
storage budget and then prioritize features accordingly. See:

Hopefully this makes sense.

the best we can do?

Pywik up and running for iOS (simple machine spin-up, if not finished in
Q2)
What is meant here by "Pywik"? Piwik? Some shortening of pywikibot?
Other?
