Dear Mark. Thank you for the news. I would try, but there are several questions I could not understnd from the description you suggest.
1. In order to install and use your new version, what should I already have installed, before to download, set-up and use the new wiki? In particular: Should I install git ? Should I install PHP ? Should I install MathJax ? Should I install C++? Suould I install Latex? What versions of the software above are required for and compatible with your version of wiki?
Does your version of wiki support pictures in PDF and/or EPS format? Sincerely, Dima.

I've just finished preparing the first release candidate for MediaWiki 1.21 and I'd like your help testing it before the final release.
Please download the release candidate and test it. If you find any bugs please report them on Bugzilla[1] and make sure I am added as a CC so that we can fix any show-stoppers before the final release.
Finally, if you could also look over https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.21, I'll be using an edited version of that to make the final announcement. If you spot problems or areas that could use clarification, your help in improving it would be appreciated.
