Wow. I'm in a state of complete shock for the lack of care here, #1 for the fact that you (or apparently the whole swedish Wikipedia community which I find very hard to believe) can't put in the 5 minutes needed entering a bug report for something that may effect many others, and (#2) you instead go the route of discussion to end up at a resolution to abandon the system in whole.
LiquidThreads has again crashed after the upgrade to MediaWiki 1.18.
Something will always break. There are no guarantees that stuff will always work, expect it to be wonky right after deployment (it *IS* pre-release software)
We don't see how LiquidThreads could ever become a reliable system
It's in the midst being rewritten http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LiquidThreads_3.0
Honestly I'm completely blown away by the fact that the remote thought of letting this go unreported for over a *WEEK* without being reported to the technical staff was at any point an acceptable decision, and your response one week later being "nah we're just not going to use this anymore". Honestly, how do you all decide not to report an issue as bad sounding as "crashed" (I'm assuming a DB error of some sort). I'm pretty sure if you reported this when it happened it would most likely be resolved by now.
Above all, you have the right to decide that you don't want LQT, but to do so saying that there's some bug and refusing to report it because "have no interest in this bug getting fixed" is absolutely infuriating to me and probably other developers.
(Note: I speak for myself and my own opinions)

So you aren't going to file a bug so everyone else has to suffer and possibly find this bug themselves when it could be fixed if someone filed it?
Correct. We have no interest in this bug getting fixed. The matter doesn't exist anymore. It is a non-topic. This is the difference from last time this happened. Thanks for understanding.
