Thank you, @thcipriani, I'll start finding deployment windows to lurk in every week!

Hey @jsn.sherman I paused the training pending a retro that I have yet to set up :\

Hi there, the moderator tools team is working on an extension that we aim to deploy in the future. I thought this seemed like a reasonable point for our team to start going through deployment training since there are numerous deployment steps in the process. So far, we've just gotten help from existing deployers for the occasional backport to existing things. With training on pause, how should we proceed/plan?

In the interim, I think I will:

• remove the training from deployment calendar (both gcal and on Wikitech)
• revert these windows to regular backport/config windows
• add a note to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments/Training + https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/96/ + Release-Engineering-Team (Deployment Training Requests) that this is paused pending a retrospective

brennen merged https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/repos/releng/release/-/merge_requests/55

thcipriani updated https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/repos/releng/release/-/merge_requests/55

Sounds good to me, I'll lurk until input is called for :-)

Thank you for filing this.

Yes, I am just waking up. :-) So, will do training afternoon my time (CST) / late UTC.

I wonder why I thought he was in mine? Wishful thinking maybe. Hope it all goes well!

I assume Subbu will participate the one later today given his timezone

We missed you, I'm guessing that you got notice of this too late to make the training? We can reschedule in any case.

Howdy @ssastry —I sent you an invite to a hangout during the backport window tomorrow, hope that still works for you. See you then!

We did a training and I have been told @Mabualruz successfully deployed.

@thcipriani Thanks for the update I can attend any window maybe to switch it around I might attend the Evening window this time. I am free any day from 23rd to 27th next week, let me know what works best with the deployers.

Hi everyone -
Is there another deployment training coming up that Moh could participate in / would it be possible to set one up if not?

👋 @dr0ptp4kt I added you to the meeting invite for a bit (since you're interested in watching a few before pushing buttons). We can remove you post-Oct 8.

We did some training / presentation on Thursday 15th September. Unfortunately there was nothing worthwhile to deploy and Mohd missed access to the deployments group (T342535). Will try again next week :)

Hey @Sgs we missed you this morning at the deployment window for training. Or were you going to do the UTC late window this time?

This is complicated, I'm withdrawing my request.
