[17:06:29] <James_F>	 anomie: Do you think we should back-port 501594 and 501595 (wgActorTableSchemaMigrationStage -> READ_NEW -> SCHEMA_COMPAT_NEW) to REL1_33?
[17:07:34] <tgr>	 yeah, we definitely should
[17:07:49] <James_F>	 Done.
[17:08:31] <tgr>	 thanks! who is the release manager these days? Mark? this is probably big enough to be worth a ping
[17:08:54] <James_F>	 Not sure, sorry; anyone from CPT know?
[17:16:57] <anomie>	 James_F: Doesn't matter much to me. Details on https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/core/+/501594#message-ca35be3138f7253c79a365bf282b66d2a6a10957
[17:19:58] <tgr>	 I think having three different migration states in three different branches would just make our life hard for no reason
[17:20:09] <tgr>	 s/branches/releases/
[17:20:57] <tgr>	 yes, there's probably not much difference betwen using the new fields and writing the old ones as well, and just using the new fields; but if we can do without it, why risk it?
[17:21:41] <tgr>	 ...I guess you could make the counterargument that as long as the old fields are written, outdated tools don't break, so there's a smoother upgrade path
[17:23:31] <tgr>	 I hear CindyCicaleseWMF is the de facto release manager now, maybe she has an opinion on this
[17:42:13] <greg-g>	 tgr: I'd ask cindy what's in/out for tarballs
[20:56:49] <SMalyshev>	 James_F: so I understand you know how MCR/mediainfo works on commons? Could you help me understand it too?
