Dear all,
I have done a scan of our current bugzilla settings, and there are 45 or so named
extensions that are currently present in the MediaWiki Subversion extensions/ folder
without a maintainer. Instead, the default maintainer is used for new issues (wikibugs-l
at
lists.wikimedia.org). This decreases the changes that the reported issues will ever get
any attention.
I would like to call upon you to adopt an extension.
If you want to adapt an extension and current have:
(a) commit access: please e-mail me your Bugzilla e-mail address, and I will add you as a
maintainer and assign existing open issues to you trusting that you will address them
properly.
(b) no commit access: please e-mail "commit-access-requests at wikimedia.org"[1]
to request it. Once approved, do as in (a) above.
Would also appreciate information about any extension in this list that may be obsolete on
MediaWiki trunk; this will allow us to tag it in trunk and remove it after branching the
next MediaWiki version.
Cheers!
Siebrand
