[Wikitech-l] ArchCom RFC update #4

[Gabriel Wicke]

This week things have been relatively quiet, with many engineers attending
the Jerusalem Hackathon
. Daniel and
others discussed dependency injection
 at the hackathon, and a first
patch was merged.

With today's conclusion of the Final Comment Period, Max's proposal to require
mbstring support  was officially
accepted, and the corresponding patch was merged.

At next week's IRC meeting, we will explore improving editing support and
performance with balanced and "hygienic" transclusions.

Gabriel

RFC inbox

T54807: Identify and remove legacy preferences from MediaWiki core

preferences : These
preference-related RFCs currently don't have a clear owner, and need
product input.

participants have expressed support. Based on the discussion, the ArchCom
approved the RFC today, and Max's patch
