Hi,

thank you very much Markus for all the improvements in SMW, I couldn't wait to 
try the new features but.. :( ..it doesn't work properly on my wiki. 

Whenever I put an #ask-query on a page that queries for all pages in a 
category, then all I get is an empty page (not even the output around the query 
is printed any more). 

With the debug output format I don't get any errors and I can also past the SQL 
query into MySQL and get the desired rows, so up to the database query it runs 
fine. Unfortunately there is no debug output or exceptions printed even with 
full MediaWiki debugging features enabled :(

Another oddity is that when using Spezial:Semantische Suche (is that 
Special:Ask? I never used it before...) it always prepends the Query part with 
"broadtable20" after clicking the "Finde Ergebnisse" Button - and this is even 
independent of asking for a Category or a single page.

@Markus: 
On Bugzilla Philipp filed the bug 21232 in October, asking for chained property 
value printing which is a pretty important feature for my use case. Is it 
possible to add this feature to 1.5.0, or is it inherently impossible to 
implement, or are you just lacking the time :)

Nice evening,
Stefan

Subject: [Semediawiki-user] Status SMW, release plans for 1.5.0

Dear SMW users,

this is just to let you know that the main changes to the SVN version of SMW 
have been completed, and that the release of SMW 1.5.0 is planned for February 
now. Since there have been major changes in some internal parts, it would be 
good to get some testing going. Especially, extension developers should check 
that there are no compatibility problems with the new version -- little has 
changed in the officially documented interfaces, but you never know.

The main changes in SMW 1.5.0 are internal, cleaning up the rather complex 
piece of code use for database access in SMW, and should not be visible to the 
user unless something went wrong. On the user level, a different declaration of 
n-ary (multi-valued) properties, and an extended UI for Special:Ask are the 
most noticeable changes.

We have heard that some users have reported problems/bugs with the SVN version 
on IRC recently, but we do not know what exactly the problems were. There are 
no logs of the IRC (and in any case single messages are easy to overlook). So 
please, if you find any problems in SMW, be sure to report them on 
bugzilla.mediawiki.org, or at least send some email to one of the lists where 
it is on archive. Otherwise, your problem reports have a high chance of going 
unnoticed.

Cheers,

Markus
