If you are an extension maintainer, or are interested in helping out, your help
with the following task would be appreciated:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T172146
As per T165149, the contract of Title::getTalkPage changes to throw an exception
if called on a page in a namespace that does not have a talk namespace associated.
All calls to Title::getTalkPage must either be changed to
getTalkPageIfDefined(), or they must first check canHaveTalkPage(). These checks
can be omitted only for the User namespace, since user pages can always have
talk pages. Note that some of the below may be calls to User::getTalkPage
instead; those also don't need checks, since users can always have talk pages.
Offending calls to getTalkPage() should be removed from all extensions. They
MUST be removed from all extensions deployed on the Wikimedia cluster before
merging Icee208dc.
Below is a list of extensions with potentially offending calls to
getTalkNamespace(). Please go through them, and tick them off in the phabricator
task once the fix has been merged. If you made a patch bit it is not merged yet,
you can link to it in the respective line of the task description.

Please note that we've upgraded the version of npm used in the Wikimedia
continuous integration infrastructure. This means that CI should be more
consistent with developers' local set-ups, and lets us test in a more
normal environment. This change will only affect node-based CI tasks, like
the standard eslint/stylelint/jsonlint/banana tasks.
This is a breaking change for npm, as it will no longer silently install
peer dependencies – you need to specify them manually. If your repo was
previously warning about peer dependencies, it may now no longer work,
though we think we've fixed these. If you have this situation, you can fix
it by adding the appropriate peer dependencies to your repo's package.json
file, and if you can't work out how to fix it feel free to ask me or others
in IRC; #wikimedia-releng is normally best.
Thanks all!

http://www.technollama.co.uk/us-court-declares-gpl-is-a-contract :
[...]
In a strong declaration that online open source licences are contracts,
the court declares:
“Defendant contends that Plaintiff’s reliance on the unsigned GNU
GPL fails to plausibly demonstrate mutual assent, that is, the
existence of a contract. Not so. The GNU GPL, which is attached to
the complaint, provides that the Ghostscript user agrees to its
terms if the user does not obtain a commercial license. Plaintiff
alleges that Defendant used Ghostscript, did not obtain a commercial
license, and represented publicly that its use of Ghostscript was
licensed under the GNL GPU. These allegations sufficiently plead the
existence of a contract.”
