Dear community members,
Despite our efforts, and with much progress behind the scenes, we regret
that we won’t be able to release Wikibase Suite 1.38 in December. Although
our engineers have put their hearts into this (and we want to express our
deepest gratitude to them), our team simply reached its limits in December.
We’re very aware that as of the recent Mediawiki 1.39 release, our latest
Docker images are in parity only with a deprecated version of MediaWiki.
This is far from ideal, but we’re steadily catching up to the great work
done by our colleagues at The Wikimedia Foundation.
Given all the progress we’ve made on Wikibase Suite 1.38 in December, we’re
confident that we will be able to proceed with its release in the first
half of January. Attaining parity with MediaWiki is Suite’s top engineering
priority at the moment.
As always, we want to hear your feedback: tell us how you feel and, even
better, please let us know what you’re most looking forward to in our
releases.
Wishing you some rest and good times with those that are special to you
over the coming weeks. We’re looking forward to picking back up with you in
January.
Cheers!
Jon and Valerie
