Re: [Wikitech-l] [Release workflow recommendation] A public releases JSON file.

Hi Brian, on mediawiki-enterprise-l, Derric Atzrott suggested we use the respective WikiData item for up-to-date MediaWiki version information: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q83 It's machine readable, could easily be queried and probably converted into other formats as needed. It is also very easy to include updating this item into our release workflow. Do you think this fits your needs?

I guess you could still just fetch https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:MW_stable_release_number to get the info, but having a json file somewhere sounds like a good idea provided there's actually people wanting to use it and it wouldn't inconvenience whomever is charged with updating it too much. --bawolff _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
