[MediaWiki-announce] MediaWiki release candidate 1.15.0rc1

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 MediaWiki 1.15.0rc1, a release candidate for the 2009 Q2 branch of MediaWiki, is now available. Please try it out and tell us if it works for you. This is a beta release and is not recommended for use in a production environment. SQLite support has been re-enabled. SQLite is a lightweight serverless database engine. All you need is the client library (which comes with PHP), and a place to put files. It should be great for small personal wikis and resource-limited shared hosts. Please try it out. A new user preference has been added, allowing the user to specify their gender. This is primarily for the benefit of localising interface text in languages which have gendered second person pronouns, such as Russian. A user's gender is currently only available via the {{GENDER:}} parser function. More applications may be added later.
