Before I release a formal 1.6.0, I'd like if a few people would quickly test
installation of the current snapshot.

Generally 1.6 is working quite nice on our own servers, but the installation
and
updater code might not be as well exercised. I've done a few basic smoke
tests
on my own, but a few more under different conditions might be wise before we
make a fuss about The Big Release.

Release notes (not finalized):
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/RELEASE-NOTES


As a reminder, we're planning to start on a quarterly snapshot release
schedule;
about every three months we'll take what's currently running, branch it off
and
release it. Security updates will continue to be made on those release
branches
for some time, but feature development and non-essential bugfixes generally
will
go on the mainline and be available in the next quarterly release.

So 1.7 is tentatively scheduled for July; 1.8 for October, 1.9 (?) for
January, etc.
