Looks OK to me - I understand that the automatic updates are not the actual news here and it would be great to find ways to explain the importance of the change to JSON more clearly, e.g. using Siebrand's comment "probably the largest patch set for MediaWiki ever" ( http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2014-April/075587.html ), but that's not contained in the blog post itself, and otherwise I don't see a good option to do that in 140c. Post away ;) On Thu, Apr 3, 2014 at 3:10 AM, Guillaume Paumier <gpaumier(a)wikimedia.org>wrote;wrote:

Amir has written a follow-up post on the actual transition from PHP to JSON.

Thanks, Tilman. Amir is telling me there are a few errors in the post so I'll wait until he's done correcting them before sending those. On Thu, Apr 10, 2014 at 7:32 PM, Tilman Bayer <tbayer(a)wikimedia.org> wrote:
