What is your point? Oversight seems not have been mentioned in or have
relevance to the message you quoted.

The extension is still installed on Wikipedia, as there are revisions that
used that and are still in the database.  It's a bit irrelevant for
Wikidata though and don't think it affects the test system much at all,
whether or not we have that extension.

Developers have created a maintenance script to migrate all the old stuff
to the new system, so that Oversight can eventually be uninstalled.

2012-08-17 Thread Denny Vrandečić
The idea of installing the extensions that are running on the
Wikipedias on the client is to see if we encounter any weird
interactions that shouldn't be there, i.e. it is some mild form of
integration testing. Thus installing Oversight makes sense, as it runs
on the Wikipedias.

Cheers,
Denny
