Previous Sprint Changes
Cleanup Maintainers mailing list
Queried and added active Maintainers to the mailing list application to send important communication, such as the GitLab phase 1 announcement.
Status: Deployed
GitLab phase 1 scheduled: Mar 29th 2019 22:00 UTC – Mar 30th 01:00 UTC (Mar 29th 2019 3pm PDT – 6pm PDT)
We are scheduled to deploy GitLab phase 1 on March 29th from 3pm PDT - 6pm PDT. We have made every effort to minimize downtime for the community.
For the past 18 months, interoperability between the current Git infrastructure and migration to GitLab was a much larger effort than expected. With several challenges: optimization of project syncing, disaster recovery, replication, high availability, and phasing out our old Git servers to name a few. Each member of the Engineering Team has put a lot of time and effort in testing and these challenges. We can now confidently say we are ready for launch! We thank GitLab, the Drupal Association Engineering Team, and Partners for helping us achieve this launch date.
I hope you are excited as we are in achieving this milestone.
The goals of phase 1 are:
Transparently replace Drupal’s current underlying Git infrastructure (as part of this migration git.drupal.org’s SSH host key will change) for: repository hosting, maintainer permissions, code viewing with GitLab repositories, GitLab roles and permissions for maintainers, and the GitLab code viewing UI.
Enable inline code editing for project maintainers.
To unblock allowing pull requests, inline code editing for all contributors, and more in phase 2.

Implementing Open Demographics Initiative on Drupal.org
To improve the inclusiveness of our community, we want to provide better tools for understanding our community, and for allowing members of our community (at their choice) to positively affirm their identity and expression.
There are a number of important axes of identity and expression, however. We are evaluating making a module to include the Open Demographics Initiative, by @drnikki, with input from @sagesharp, @rachel_norfolk, @justafish, among others.
