Hi everyone,
We're getting very close to deploying 1.17 to the Wikimedia Foundation websites, but still have a fair amount of code (102 revisions) to review and possibly revert. One big obstacle that could cause us to get cold feet is the number of revisions marked "fixme" (29 revisions): http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_roadmap/1.17/Revision_report#Fixmes
Here's the list of people that have open fixmes: bharris, catrope, churchofemacs, dantman, demon, ialex, jeroendedauw, maxsem, mgrabovsky, neilk, nikerabbit, nikola, nimishg, platonides, purodha, raymond, thomasv, werdna, yaauie
If you're on that list, please take a look at the URL above, and at least comment on your revisions. We really can't leave the fixmes out there for much longer and expect to actually deploy 1.17 next week.
Thanks Rob
