Hello Everyone,
It's time for Wikimedia Tech Talks 2020 Episode 3! *This talk will take
place on 29 April 2020 at 5 PM UTC*.
*Title:* The Basics of cryptography using OpenPGP and GnuPG
*Speaker:* Lars Wirzenius, Senior Software Engineer
*Summary:* OpenPGP is the prevalent standard for cryptography for secure
software distribution and GnuPG is its prevalent Open Source
implementation. This talk introduces things at a conceptual level: what
cryptography is for, why is it useful, and the basic use of GnuPG by
creating cryptographic keys, using digital signatures, and encryption. No
previous experience with GnuPG or OpenPGP is needed, but all examples will
be using the Linux command line.
The link to the Youtube Livestream can be found here:

Slow process, fast rendering
Imagine someone edits a page, and that editing hits a very slow
tag-function of some kind. You want to respond fast with something
readable, some kind of temporary page until the slow process has finished.
Do you chose to reuse what you had from the last revision, if it the
content of the function hasn't changed, or do you respond with a note that
you are still processing? The temporary page could then update missing
content through an API.
I assume that a plain rerender of the page will occur after the actual
content is updated and available, i.e. a rerender will only happen some
time after the edit and the slow process would then be done. A last step of
the process could then be to purge the temporary page.
This work almost everywhere, but not for collections, they don't know about
temporary pages. Is there some mechanism implemented that does this or
something similar? It feels like something that should have a general
solution.
There are at least two different use cases; one where some existing
information gets augmented with external data (without really changing the
content), and one where some external data (could be content) gets added to
existing content. An example of the first could be verification of
references, wile the later could be natural language generation.

Hello everyone,
I just switched Gerrit to new UI. And it looks well (I believe that newer
versions have much better interface).
But, I don't know how to manage patch made via web interface.
My test patch: https://i.snipboard.io/4HSdbK.jpg
I don't know how to add and edit some file. I can't find these buttons from
documentation
https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-inline-edit.html
Can someone help me?

Hi everyone,
The first weekend of May the Wikimedia Hackathon 2020 in Tirana was
supposed to happen. As an alternative, we're organizing a remote
hackathon. Please have a look at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Hackathon_2020/Remote_Hackathon
and sign up if you're interested in participating.
All of the sessions, projects, and initiatives are run by the
participants themselves and not overseen by a core organizing team. All
ideas including technical projects and sessions, non-technical projects
and sessions, and social events/socal time are very welcome.
Please spread the word!
Maarten
