Hi,
The idea of printing a schedule for dropping compatibility with MediaWiki
versions is a very good idea - it's helpful to both admins and extension
developers. Still, maybe it's better to separate this schedule from the
planned SMW version schedule - since knowing exactly when, say, SMW 1.8 will
come out really is a guess, whereas for dropping MediaWiki compatibility
there can be a much more precise schedule - assuming that it's based on some
simple rule, like compatibility with a specific version of MW is kept for x
months or years after it's no longer the official version. Maybe there
should just be two separate schedules?
