2024

I am happy to announce the availability of the general release of MediaWiki 1.37! Tarballs have already been uploaded, and the git tag has been pushed. Please note that MediaWiki 1.37 (as did 1.36) now requires the PHP internationalization extension, commonly referred to as Intl, ext-intl, or php-intl. As a reminder, 1.31 (the old LTS) became end of life in September 2021. 1.35 (the new LTS) is supported until September 2023. Note that the patches in comparison rc.2 are much larger than usual due to the re-introduction of translation backports. This only includes updates for MediaWiki core and bundled skins. Extension updates will follow in the next point release (along with further updates for MediaWiki core and the bundled skins). MediaWiki 1.37 will be supported until November 2022. MediaWiki 1.38 is due to be released in May 2022. === Changes since MediaWiki 1.37.0-rc.2 === * Remove justinrainbow/json-schema from vendor. * Updated pear/mail_mime from 1.10.9 to 1.10.11. * Update deprecated Guzzle Psr7 function calls. * (T281972) UserIdentityValue: Correct @since tags. * Updated wikimedia/parsoid from v0.14.0-a19 to v0.14.0. * Localisation updates. * Tweak error message for missing composer dependencies.

MediaWiki 1.37.0-rc.2 is ready for testing

by Sam Reed

I'm pleased to announce the immediate availability of MediaWiki 1.37.0-rc.2, the second release candidate for 1.37.x. Download links are at the end of the e-mail. The tag has been signed and pushed to Git. This is not a final release, and should not be used for production websites. Known issues are tracked in Phabricator on the release workboard [1]. As with every release of MediaWiki, a large number of changes have landed in the last six months (over 1700 commits since 1.36.0 was cut), and you should read over the preliminary release notes as part of assuring yourself of areas that may have issues with your configuration, your skins, and/or your extensions. As always, please try out the release candidate in a test environment and do report any issues that you discover. Please use the #MW-1.37-Release [2] tag in Phabricator when reporting issues specific to this release, to make sure that we find them as quickly as possible. It is expected that this will be the final release candidate, and that MediaWiki 1.37 will become final in late November 2021, though the date may slip if blockers are identified. Preliminary release notes: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/REL1_37/RELEASE-NOTES-1.37 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Release_notes/1.37 Changes since 1.37.0-rc.1: * (T295173) Re-add wikimedia/normalized-exception to vendor. * Remove wikimedia/testing-access-wrapper, psr/simple-cache, psr/http-factory from vendor. * (T295191) ApiQuerySiteinfo: Fix "rightsinfo"/"url" when $wgRightsPage is set. * (T212428) Allow populateContentTables to continue when there are bad blobs.
