Hi folks,
I just wanted to quickly highlight the plan that we have for deploying
MediaWiki 1.18 to the Wikimedia sites:
* Monday, September 19 (-20), 23:00-01:00 UTC (4pm-6pm PDT):
MediaWiki 1.18 deployment to test2
* Wednesday, September 21 (-22), 23:00-03:00 UTC (4pm-8pm PDT):
MediaWiki 1.18 stage 1 deployment (simplewiki, simplewiktionary,
usabilitywiki, strategywiki, mediawikiwiki, hewikisource)
Yesh! Good to see hewikisource in the default list.
And mediawikiwiki should be a good early testbed for Robin's
directionality fixes, thanks to the crazy things in the Code Review
extension.
Will Commons be upgraded with the "remaining wikis"? I expect the
biggest (and positive) influence of these fixes in Commons, but i also
expect some issues at first, because of the Rtl.css and Rtl.js
customization there. If all is well, these two files should probably
be deleted, but the transition may be a bit rocky at first.
