Hello,
Somehow I had missed this announcement but I had downloaded version
1.21.0rc1 in order to solve the incredibly slow job queue in version 1.20,
which was also slowing down my whole wiki.
Everything seems to be working fine; jobs run a maximum warp and the queue
is becoming tiny.
There is just one issue that I would like to mention: in my database
(MySQL) pre-upgrade jobs have job_random set to 0 and do not seem to be
picked up -not even when I use the option --type=replaceText.
I can repeat the replace text operations, so this is not big problem for
me. However, if this is the normal behaviour for an upgrade, maybe it
should be mentioned in the notes somewhere.
Thanks for all the work from a very happy user,
Isabel

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.
