Infra Update
Area updates & Discussion questions:
Reliability, Security, Networks, Systems (Ryan)
Automation & configuration management continues to improve

Real-Time Support (Michael)
3,872 Desk.com cases so far since February (Helpdesk, Onboarding new contribs, community issues, & event cases)
Since last update: 99.08% (Demo) to 100% uptime. Demo related to periodic short outages due to reloading of site, upgrades, etc.
Dev Tools
Nothing new to report
Communication Systems (Michael)
~ 42,000 OpenMRS.org visits per month
Continuing to "dogfood" Discourse with small lists & groups. All our Google Groups except dev@ and implementers@ have been migrated to Discourse. A few email processing-related bugs outstanding. (Forwarding, HTML formatting, etc.)
IRC logs are being resurrected on a standalone searchable web server vs inside Confluence. Waiting on OSUOSL who seem to be on winter holiday break.
UberConference no longer officially supports Firefox. Should that cause us to reconsider alternatives?
Identity Systems (Elliott)
ID Dashboard & Modulus are participating in Google Code-in to get additional work done over the next 6 weeks. Details available in GCI project on JIRA.
QA Systems (Cintia)
Signficant improvements in Bamboo configuration this quarter including additional agents. Agents have upgraded OS, Maven 2 & 3 upgraded, agents run isolated
Modules can be released from Bamboo
Many recent changes. If any builds are breaking, please contact helpdesk@openmrs.org.
