[14:16:37] <Krinkle>	 Reedy: ori regarding abandoned upstream statsd client, colewhite has already developed a replacement as part of mw-on-Prometheus work in libs/metrics
[14:17:00] <Reedy>	 orly
[14:17:39] <Krinkle>	 It's not used yet and we're stil shaping the interface. Maybe we could extract a bit of it and fill the old interface once we're happy with it
[14:18:09] <Krinkle>	 We already wrap the old lib quite a bit so in many ways we already forked/extended heavily with perf and buffer optims
[14:21:24] <Reedy>	 I imagine the code inside MW doesn't suffer too much churn... But probably will need backporting to REL1_39 if we're going drop the lib so we can fix the PHP 8.2 deprecation etc
[14:23:18] <Reedy>	 (otherwise we're dragging it along for the next 2.5 years)
[14:23:38] <Krinkle>	 Ack. That'd be a bit tricky. Removing a lib in a patch update.
[14:24:05] <Krinkle>	 Maybe some dep warnings are fine, it won't break until PHP 9
[14:24:24] <Krinkle>	 Or we can handle REL through a fork
[14:24:37] <Reedy>	 I wonder what the usage of the lib outside MW core (ie extensions) is
[14:24:43] <Reedy>	 And/or the statsd code generally
[14:25:02] <Reedy>	 As per the task, there's indeed no massive rush. But be nice to have a fix ahead of time :P
[14:25:16] <Reedy>	 See if we get any response from upstream anyway....
