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

mgrabovsky's r66200 is just a simple decision about the name of a magic word. Might be easy to handle.

The one from yaauie (r70608) was for MSSQL support. I'm pretty sure all the non-MSSQL specific parts have been long since resolved. If there's any issues with the DBMS-specific codepaths, they certainly aren't blockers to deployment *or* release.

r77741 is mostly docs changes needed. A deprecation note for $wgCopyrightIcon in the config One or two slight notes missing in the config doc for $wgFooterIcons There is an issue with getCopyrightIcon()/getPoweredBy()/(aka:copyrightico/poweredbyico). They're not used by core skins anymore, however DumpHTML uses them. And making getCopyrightIcon/getPoweredBy() use the footer icons properly would be some ugly code duplication from SkinTemplate that I don't feel like writing. I'm starting to feel like just slapping deprecated tags on getCopyrightIcon/getPoweredBy, and in 1.18 removing them after DumpHTML is fixed. The only other thing really was brion didn't quite like the use of & in the foreach loop, but doing a `grep '=> &' . -R --exclude-dir=.svn` makes me think that really doesn't matter to 1.17.
