Before I release a formal 1.6.0, I'd like if a few people would quickly test installation of the current snapshot.
Generally 1.6 is working quite nice on our own servers, but the installation and updater code might not be as well exercised. I've done a few basic smoke tests on my own, but a few more under different conditions might be wise before we make a fuss about The Big Release.

Release notes (not finalized): http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/RELEASE-NOTES
As a reminder, we're planning to start on a quarterly snapshot release schedule; about every three months we'll take what's currently running, branch it off and release it. Security updates will continue to be made on those release branches for some time, but feature development and non-essential bugfixes generally will go on the mainline and be available in the next quarterly release.
So 1.7 is tentatively scheduled for July; 1.8 for October, 1.9 (?) for January, etc.

I tried to upgrade an existing 1.5.5 and got:
Adding ss_images field to table site_stats...Query "UPDATE site_stats SET ss_images=@images " failed with error code "Table 'mywikiname.site_stats' doesn't exist (localhost)".
On a second run of the config script, the error did not reoccur. Everything seems to work fine now.
Cheers,
Markus

Brion,
You're in luck (or I am, depending). I had just completed a complete offline file copy of the entire wiki and supporting structure when your email showed up.
Now, I feel ready for some virtual excitement. I'll go try it upgrade from 1.5.2 to this release.

Hmm,
Unfortunately, although the update seems to finish completely and without errors. I can't get any pages to show up. I don't know what's happening (yet). But the processes (apache, mysql, browser) aren't showing any CPU usage, no disk activity, no memory delta's.
But after waiting for a couple of minutes trying the bookmark again got me my wiki pronto. It seems that some of my layout is messed up. when I build my own tables in HTML because I couldn't get wiki tables to do what I wanted (multiple, nested tables etc.)
Now this _could_ be because I (had) made some modifications to the Parser.php code in order to allow more HTML in the code. But otherwise it seems to go quite nicely
So now the real adventure begins. Did I document all my code changes well enough to be able to reimlement them on 1.6. Or is perhaps some of that functionality already build in? I can have a busy next couple of weeks :-)
Thanks Brion, it seems to work alright.

Oh, silly me. I just realized that in those first few minutes the wiki was probably filling all those wonderful new tables... :-( sorry.

Spotted this, a small oversight I made earlier. Corrected in SVN HEAD.
