Hi All

tl;dr: Don't deploy on Thursday except for emergencies; the deployment
calendar on Wikitech
<https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments#Week_of_August_10> is
up-to-date.

Friday of next week (2020-08-14) is a wmf holiday. As such, Thursday should
be treated as Friday for the purposes of deployment; that is, no
deployments on Thursday except for emergencies
<https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Deployments/Emergencies>.

This has implications for the (1.36.0-wmf.4) train—we'll be going to all
wikis on Wednesday evening UTC rather than Thursday evening UTC:

- Tue, 11 Aug, EU Train Window, 13:00 UTC: Group0
- Wed, 12 Aug, EU Train Window, 13:00 UTC: Group1
- Wed 12 Aug, US Train Window, 19:00 UTC: All Wikis

Hopefully, this will allow time for manual testing on Group0 wikis, and
allow us to complete the train on time.
