[MediaWiki-announce] MediaWiki 1.10.0rc2 release candidate available

by Brion Vibber

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 MediaWiki 1.10 is the quarterly release snapshot for Spring 2007. While the code has been running on Wikipedia for some time, installation and upgrade bits may be less well tested. Bug fix releases may follow in the coming days or weeks. This is a release candidate -- 1.10.0 final will be released very shortly, after a few more people have had a chance to test it in additional environments. Changes since 1.10.0rc1: * Various l10n fixes and updates * Fix for upgrade of page_restrictions table * (bug 9780) Fix normalization of titles with initial colon followed by whitespace * Fix for regression in upload: wrong size info saved into image table * Avoid cyclic stub problems when authorization hooks do funny things with the user and the database at load time MediaWiki is now using a "continuous integration" development model with quarterly snapshot releases. The latest development code is always kept "ready to run", and in fact runs our own sites on Wikipedia. Release branches will continue to receive security updates for about a year from first release, but nonessential bugfixes and feature development happen will be made on the development trunk and appear in the next quarterly release. Those wishing to use the latest code instead of a branch release can obtain it from source control: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_SVN Full release notes: http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/tags/REL1_10_0RC2/phase3/RELEASE… Download: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.10/mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.tar.gz http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.10/mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.patch PGP signature: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.10/mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.tar.gz.sig http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.10/mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.patch.sig MD5 checksum: 988d8f642693f95e62efc56200baa99b mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.tar.gz 692572fa067c5797172ef4d2471259d1 mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.patch SHA-1 checksum: 37e17e2a75a407f8d4888f61b7d2d3ad74b43ab4 mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.tar.gz c99d890a30532d3daba73ba84c4a9e2cdc34bbd1 mediawiki-1.10.0rc2.patch Before asking for help, try the FAQ: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ Low-traffic release announcements mailing list: (Please subscribe to receive announcements of security updates.) http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-announce Wiki admin help mailing list: http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l Bug report system: http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ Play "stump the developers" live on IRC: #mediawiki on irc.freenode.net - -- brion vibber (brion @ wikimedia.org) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGO6o3wRnhpk1wk44RAh3MAKCwbDGUWXho9ITx99YcZmRl3c2eXgCghAqe twRgei6PzF/xn/n06x4Dkf0= =JfKz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-announce mailing list MediaWiki-announce(a)lists.wikimedia.org http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-announce

how to put html to a page after parsing process ?

by Christoph

Hi, I want to place some xmlns-namespace definitions to the top of a page. The xmlns stuff is collected during the parsing process by an extension and should then be placed once to the page (anywhere at the beginning) I already tried to do this with ParserAfterTidy and OutputPageBeforeHTML. This works but these hooks are also fired after each call of my extension (and not at the end of the whole site parsing process as I expected). Would be glad about a solution :-) Greets Christoph

Oversight log messages

by Raimond Spekking

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi In a lot of MessagesXx.php still exists the messages 'oversightlog' and 'overlogpagetext'. I cannot find any usages, neither in core nor in the Oversight extension. I installed Oversight on my testwiki. [[Special:Log]] does not contain an Oversight log and [[Special:Oversight]] uses other messages from the i18n file for its log. Have I missed something? Any objections against removing above messages completely?

Teh ILLEEEEGIL NUMBAH distributed spam attack - stats?

by David Gerard

The current ILLEEEEGIL NUMBAH is in the spam filter owing to fight-the-power morons cut'n'pasting it into every input box on the web, including ours. Probably a good idea. That said, do we have stats on the rate of ILLEEEEGIL NUMBAH spamming? Does the spam filter keep a count of attempts? It would be good to know when this idiocy has calmed down and we can think about writing about it [*]. [*] with appropriate consideration of legal issues, community matters, editorial matters, NPOV, whether Hollywood has been turned into a glass crater by the sheer force of worldwide contempt, etc., etc. I'm just asking about the spam filter here. - d.

ANN: MathTran 0.2

by J.Fine

Hello I'm pleased to announce the release of MathTran 0.2 http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=190769&package_id= 223850 and its installation on the MathTran web server http://www.mathtran.org This release provides TeX running as a daemon, providing TeX typesetting as a web service. At present, the only format provided is Secure Plain, a variant of Plain TeX. For more information, visit the website, particularly http://www.mathtran.org/faq.html I intend later to post some messages to this list about MediaWiki tools and projects such as texvc, blahtex and wikitex, and their relation to MathTran. I think that the performance and security model of MathTran may be of particular interest to you. http://texd.cvs.sourceforge.net/texd/secsty/ http://texd.cvs.sourceforge.net/texd/py/tex/ The MathTran project gratefully acknowledges support from The Open University and from JISC. http://www.open.ac.uk http://www.jisc.ac.uk -- Jonathan Fine (MathTran project manager)

by Mohamed Magdy

Hi May be this post suits mediawiki mailing list better... I made a mirror here: http://wikabadia.info/wiki I'm having some problems with cache thing as I'm waiting for the apache to restart so it catches APC...but that is not the issue... importDump.php isn't nice on cpu, it got killed so many times that I stopped counting..see this uncompleted log: > 2007-04-27 03:31:46 done Articles, templates, image descriptions, and > primary meta-pages.arwiki 89498 pages START:2.16AM > 1run->killed after 2197..2run->killed after 5716(3519)..3run->killed > after 10152(4436) > Trying nice -n 19 > ..4run->killed after 14289(4137) -> reduced number! > Trying nice -n 10 > ..5run->killed after 16973(2684) -> OMG > trying without nice... > ..6run->killed after 20165(3192) -> increase again... > ..7run->killed after 23403(3238) > ..7run->killed after 26780(3377) > I will stop counting after how many it is killed..enough! > ENDED:7:30AM > TOTAL:5 hours 15 minutes So I'm asking again the same feature as here: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2007-April/031021.html and also the ability to start it from xxxx number of page..say you finished until 12222..so instead of starting over...specify from which to start... I want to make the button 'Edit this page' to edit the article on Wikipedia..and the history button the same way, goes to history in Wikipedia..and I cannot understand what Platonides* *kindly mentioned here: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2007-April/031021.html Any ideas? ~alnokta
