Hello, Looking at INSTALL it seems we are still supporting PHP version 5.1 which is 5 years old in a couple of weeks. This is getting old and prevents developers from using some new features.
Ideally we could raise it to 5.3 to get Namespace support, closures but that might be to early since most webhost probably still use 5.2.x. Would it be possible to consider raising the requirement to at least 5.2.0 ? This would give us native JSON support and most probably the filter extension enabled by default. The later can be used to speed up the input validation. cheers, -- Ashar Voultoiz _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
