Hi everyone,
Stage 1 of the MediaWiki 1.18 deployment is complete. We've deployed
to the following wikis:
*
he.wikisource.org
*
mediawiki.org
*
simple.wikipedia.org
*
simple.wiktionary.org
*
strategy.wikimedia.org
*
usability.wikimedia.org
The deployment had a few bumps (mainly problems with LiquidThreads,
which we reverted to 1.17), but mostly went well. We started late due
to getting a last-minute adjustment to the Resource Loader/Het Deploy
compatibility fix in.
You can see some of the last minute changes we made here:

...as well as logs of major changes to the cluster last night here:

Thanks to all involved! Next step is Stage 2 on Monday. More details
about the 1.18 deployment generally are here:
