Can you set a different deploy date for different

UTC for Poland. I will not be able to be there when hell will brake
loose as I will be working and I'm sure most of the Polish tech admins
will be too. Note that we was able test Vector with current scripts
before the deploment so this is a bit different. And I still remember
the ammount of complaints bouncing here and there when Vector came and
broke Wikipedia and what not... Not that they were all valid and could
have been avoided, but maybe some could.
Not that I'm complaining ;-), but prototype is... well it's empty for
now and it would be good if we could test scripts and do it as fast (and
as soon) as possible. I've already asked Leinad, but maybe someone could
import current Mediawiki namespace to prototype quicker.
For one thing - I think our script for moving the search bar to the left
side panel will be probably broken (as you make it wider now) and this
will probably have to be fixed right after deployment...

You could also test the scripts in advance. If you think a particular
script will break/need to be disabled with the switchover, you can
always warp it in a if (wgVersion=="1.16wmf4") { check.
That kind of action shouldn't be needed, though.
Hm... Not a bad idea.
I don't see that plwiki have its search bar at the
left sidebar, I don't
know what does that script.
You can switch with a link at the top of the page (in p-personal) on the
left. It stays that way thanks to the cookie setting and you don't have
to be logged in... Just a little something I've done for those wanting
to go back a bit to monobook but not all the way ;-). I can already see
it's broken on prototype (we now have MediaWiki imported) but that's an
easy fix with that wgVersion hack.
