Echo should provide notifications about your revision being "sighted" on wikis with FlaggedRevs enabled. I don't think it does now, only about your revision being "patrolled" using the built-in patrolling functionality in MW. This would be a rather important and very useful feature; one of the wikis with FlaggedRevs is the Polish Wikipedia, which is getting Echo on August 20 per 51251. (I wouldn't consider this a deployment blocker, but it would be *really* nice to have it by then.)

Change 79775 abandoned by Matmarex: Fire Echo event when revision is approved Reason: Somebody who knows at least one of the extensions should implement this. I give up. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/79775
There's an In-depth explanation from Atlasowa at https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension_talk:Thanks&diff=prev&oldid=686945#Early_thoughts (and reminders/nudges/summaries at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Echo_%28Notifications%29#Before_deployment_on_deWP_32656 and at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Notifications#New_notification_.22gesichtet.22_needed_for_deWP.2C_plWP.2C_ruWP.2C_arWP_etc )

Change 79775 restored by Legoktm: Fire Echo event when revision is approved https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/79775
Change 79775 abandoned by Bartosz Dziewoński: Fire Echo event when revision is approved Reason: I'd love it if someone revived this, but I won't anytime soon. Please resubmit as a new changeset in that case. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/79775
What is the plan ahead here? Is legoktm still the correct assignee, and does somebody plan to work on this soon (as it was set to high priority and ASSIGNED status)? A status update would be welcome. Note that there is related discussion in https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Flagged_Revisions#Ignored_bugs_on_FlaggedRevs_for_stats.2C_.22gesichtet.22-notifications
Sorry, nope I don't plan on working on this anytime soon. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/79775 is a good place for someone to start if they want to, but I just don't have the time.
