[06:33:36] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> I use etherpad.wikimedia.org a lot, and love it. I was wondering who maintains our Etherpad instance, and if it would make sense to upgrade it to a more recent version? Newer Etherpad versions support inline images, headers, comments, suggestions - going more in the direction of a (lightweight) Google Docs experience. Here's a test instance hosted by others that you can play with <clipped message>

[06:33:56] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> I would totally understand if there are good reasons not to do this, not enough resources, etc. Just neutrally asking!
[06:34:45] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> I'll be happy to submit a Phabricator ticket requesting an update. I wanted to check here first if it makes sense at all, if there are major objections or things to know
[06:36:49] <legoktm>	 @trnstlntk: filing a phabricator ticket sounds like a good first step. Even if the upgrade isn't something that's feasible right now for whatever reason, it would be good to track it as something to do eventually
[06:43:00] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> Voici le ticket: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T316421 (re @wmtelegram_bot: <legoktm> @trnstlntk: filing a phabricator ticket sounds like a good first step. Even if the upgrade isn't something that's feas...)
[06:43:47] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> Earlier Etherpad tickets seem to date back to 2017, that didn't make me very confident that this will be seen 😉
[06:44:32] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> This one still looks pretty relevant...! https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T136744 (Yes yes, I'll comment there)
[06:46:16] <legoktm>	 we last upgraded etherpad in February per https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T300568#7675998
[06:51:10] <legoktm>	 I cc'd some more people and added the SRE project
[06:52:33] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> Yeah, I do recall that upgrade, and was wondering why we didn't then include the richer features I mention. I can imagine there may be good reasons!
[06:52:43] <wm-bb>	 <trnstlntk> Thanks!
[19:57:20] <wm-bb>	 <Thecladis> I wonder if we can also have an older instance in parallel. I liked the before-update version a lot more. It was neater and more lightweight. It is indeed that now it looks more like Google Docs 😅
