Could we instead merge it with server status?

The existing page is deprecated, save for the deployed revisions in the first section. Rather than yet another link in the footer it would be nice to replace the deprecated stuff with the crontabber-state page contents.

Yeah. I started looking for what bug yesterday for that same purpose but couldn't find it. Instead I found a bunch of other bugs that I could resolve. A little spring cleaning. 

The question is; do we have anybody who cares about any of the stuff on the Server Status page? Do you Kairo or Adrian? If not, I think we should just remove it.

The deployed revision and breakpad revision have been important.

Those are accessible as JSON through this page: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/status/json/

So things that depend on the data, like whatsdeployed, are fine. The question is, is there any value in having that data showed in a nice UI? I personally don't know that it is, mostly because it's so much more valuable to look at whatsdeployed than this page.

Instead of merging server status and crontabber state, we propose that we remove the status page and links, and link to crontabber state as intended in this bug. Bug 1231670 is for removing status.

I care more about crontabber state, esp. to find out what's up when e.g. the home page graph isn't updated. We saw the last week tzhat amount of jobs in the queue has some interest, but I doubt just the way it's on server status is too helpful, it would need more info. The case where I remember using server status is when we did big reprocessing jobs and I wanted to know how far done we are, i.e. if we are back close to zero with the amount of waiting jobs.
