Hi all! I am happy to announce the availability of the general release of MediaWiki 1.33! Git tags have been pushed, and tarballs have been uploaded. Thanks to everyone who helped out with this release, especially thanks to those who tested out the release candidates and provided feedback, as well as the developers who worked hard to get several important fixes merged in time for the 1.33 final release. To see what's changed in 1.33, see the release notes below. MediaWiki 1.33 is due to be supported until the end of June 2020. ********************************************************************** Download: https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.33/mediawiki-1.33.0.tar.gz Download without bundled extensions: https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.33/mediawiki-core-1.33.0.tar.gz Patch to previous version (1.33.0-rc.0): https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.33/mediawiki-1.33.0.patch.gz GPG signatures: https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.33/mediawiki-core-1.33.0.tar.gz.… https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.33/mediawiki-1.33.0.tar.gz.sig https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.33/mediawiki-1.33.0.patch.gz.sig Public keys: https://www.mediawiki.org/keys/keys.html Release Notes https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Release_notes/1.33
