[Wikitech-l] MediaWiki 1.21 release delayed until May 18
Despite the my intention to release 1.21 today, I have to delay it until May 18. Yesterday someone pointed out a blocker to me. While we have a work-around for this, I don't have time to integrate it right now, so the release needs to be delayed until Saturday. On 05/13/2013 03:12 PM, Mark A. Hershberger wrote: The final release candidate for MediaWiki 1.21 (rc5) is available for download. See the end of this email for details. There are a number of bug fixes in this release that were not in rc4. Please test this version and report any problems. Barring any show-stoppers, the final release will be on May 15 will be the same as this with just a change to the version number and updated release notes.

[Wikitech-l] [Extension:Score] Unable to create a single score from multiple pages
Hi, At ca-ws we have started creating musical scores and we have found out that when transcluding two pages into one, it is only possible to generate two independent audio files instead of one with the whole score. Example with two pages http://ca.wikisource.org/wiki/P%C3%A0gina%3A30_can%C3%A7ons_populars_catalanes_%281916%29.djvu/59 http://ca.wikisource.org/wiki/P%C3%A0gina%3A30_can%C3%A7ons_populars_catalanes_%281916%29.djvu/60 Transcluded score: http://ca.wikisource.org/wiki/Els_micalets_d%27Espanya Is there any way to combine multiple pages into a single file? I have tried to transclude each section independently, but I always get a wall of text with errors. Also interesting would be to give the user the option to save that lilypond file.

[Wikitech-l] Announcing the Flow Portal(s)
Hello! As many of you know, the Wikimedia Foundation is now actively engaged in designing a next-generation discussion and workflow system called Flow, initially slated to replace user talk pages. Flow is an ambitious project (on par with the VisualEditor) and will touch nearly every aspect of the Wikimedia experience. We need ''your'' help and input. We have started a portal for information and discussion. You can find it on the English Wikipedia here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Flow And on MediaWiki here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Flow_Portal (We'll be creating one on meta as well). At the Flow portal, you can read about what we're doing and why, as well as play around with an interactive prototype. We're desperately interested in your feedback and thoughts. There are things that we know, and things that we know that we don't know. But there are also things that we *don't* know that we don't know. And we want to reduce that lack of knowledge. We will also be conducting additional office hours for a variety of timezones - as many as we need to - and will also be open to having conversations via Google hangouts and/or Skype as need be. I am always around on irc (freenode, username jorm) and am willing to answer any questions you may have. -b. --- Brandon Harris, Senior Designer, Wikimedia Foundation Support Free Knowledge: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] Code style: overuse of Html::element()
Besides, it adds much more overhead. What should we favour: readability or perfomance?
