I've just finished preparing the first release
candidate for MediaWiki
1.21 and I'd like your help testing it before the final release.
With a bit of planning we could have synced your call for testing with
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/QA/Weekly_goals
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.21 already shows the areas
requiring more testing. Having step-by-step instructions to get a
testable install e.g. in Labs would be the other piece of information
useful for a QA Weekly goal page.
Do we still have time to do something orchestrated? When are you
planning to release, more or less?
Please download the release candidate and test it. If
you find any bugs
please report them on Bugzilla[1] and make sure I am added as a CC so
that we can fix any show-stoppers before the final release.
Finally, if you could also look over
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.21, I'll be using an edited
version of that to make the final announcement. If you spot problems or
areas that could use clarification, your help in improving it would be
appreciated.
