As part of routine networking and OS upgrades, I'll be emptying two
hypervisors (cloudvirt1016 and cloudvirt1017) on Monday and Tuesday, the
22nd and 23rd. This will result in downtime for many VMs as they are
copied and restarted. A complete list of affected instances follows.
I'll begin by moving the deployment-prep project at around 13:00
UTC on Monday. After that copies will proceed in roughly the order you
see below, but the timing will be hard to predict.
Please let me know if you need to schedule a more specific window
for your downtime. Better yet, if any of the listed VMs are defunct and
can simply be deleted, please do that now and save me some time!

On Friday I'll be moving the toolforge cron server to new hardware.
During the move, any uses of the 'crontab' command will fail
gracelessly. Any cron jobs scheduled to launch during the downtime will
be skipped.
The move should take 5-10 minutes but may take as long as 30 if there
are complications.

Dear all,
we’re really happy to announce the first ever Coolest Tool Award
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Coolest_Tool_Award>!
Tools play an essential role at Wikimedia, and so do the many volunteer
developers who experiment with new ideas, develop & maintain local & global
solutions and bridge workflow gaps for the Wikimedia communities.
There are incredible many great tools out there. It’s time to celebrate
this & to make the work volunteer developers do more visible to everyone :-)
The Coolest Tool Award ceremony will take place at Wikimania, as part of
the official program:
https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2019:Technology_outreach_%26_innovatio…
The award is organized & selected by this year's Coolest Tool Academy. The
plan is to award the greatest tools in a variety of categories: For
example: “best Commons tool” to recognize the value of a tool for a
specific project, or “best newcomer” to award the work of a fairly new
developer.
As no one can possibly know all the cool tools out there, we’re looking for
some help & inspiration: Please point us to the tools that you think are
great - out of any reason you can think of!
Please use this form:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Ip5Sb_CDvgO6IN2f51V3WjkVYU9Sa-nneX5PoY0sjo…
to recommend tools by July 29, 2019.
You can nominate as many tools as you want by filling out the form multiple
times.
This survey will be conducted via a third-party service, which may subject
it to additional terms. For more information on privacy and data-handling,
see the survey privacy statement:
https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Coolest_Tool_Award_2019_Survey_Privac…
Thank you very much for your ideas & recommendation(s)!
We will continue to spread the word over the next 1-2 days, but if you get
the chance, please feel welcome to share this information with others too!
If you have any questions, please contact us at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Coolest_Tool_Award.
Thanks :-)
Birgit, for the Coolest Tool Academy 2019

The latest Debian version, 10.0 "buster", was officially released a
few days ago[0]. Today, I've built a new Debian buster base image and
made it available in all projects.
The Stretch base image will remain available for some time to
permit compatibility with existing setups, but any new work should use
buster. If you have existing instances that were built using the buster
prelease images (or instances that you manually upgraded from an earlier
version) I encourage you to delete them and rebuild with this new base
image for the most consistent results.
-Andrew
