MediaWiki 1.10 is the quarterly release snapshot for Spring 2007. While
the code has been running on Wikipedia for some time, installation and
upgrade bits may be less well tested. Bug fix releases may follow in the
coming days or weeks.

This is a release candidate -- 1.10.0 final will be released very
shortly, after a few more people have had a chance to test it in
additional environments.


Changes since 1.10.0rc1:

* Various l10n fixes and updates
* Fix for upgrade of page_restrictions table
* (bug 9780) Fix normalization of titles with initial colon followed by
whitespace
* Fix for regression in upload: wrong size info saved into image table
* Avoid cyclic stub problems when authorization hooks do funny things
with the user and the database at load time


MediaWiki is now using a "continuous integration" development model with
quarterly snapshot releases. The latest development code is always kept
"ready to run", and in fact runs our own sites on Wikipedia.

Release branches will continue to receive security updates for about a
year from first release, but nonessential bugfixes and feature
development happen will be made on the development trunk and appear in
the next quarterly release.

Those wishing to use the latest code instead of a branch release can
obtain it from source control:
