--- Comment #24 from Ori Livneh <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #23) > Ori, as a rule of thumb it would be great if you could consult with the > product manager (in this case, me) before removing this tool from a wiki > project, so we're all on the same page. ;o) Fabrice, on 02/08 you announced your intention to discontinue the extension on February 28th (comment 16, above). Four months later, the extension was still enabled, and had a critical bug (bug 49967), which I fixed. Commenting on that bug, you wrote: > We're talking about a very old piece of software which we no longer > support and should probably discontinue -- then upgrade to AFT5. Prompted by your comment, I file bug 49976, "Remove ArticleFeedback extension from Wikimedia wikis". I quote you in the bug report and add you as a CC. I conclude the report by asking for help in reaching out and providing notice. Oliver replies (comment 2), writing: > We already organised switching this off. We sent out notices, informed > projects, the whole shebang. Then Roan informed us he'd killed the > extension in January when it started acting funny after the migration. As far as I am aware, you did not follow-up anywhere to announce that the switch-off had been postponed, or to explain the rationale. > One of the reasons we didn't follow through vigorously on the removal of AFT4 > is that we wanted to first hear the German and French community decisions > regarding AFT5, which will influence our next steps for this product. This makes very little sense. The discontinuation of AFTv4 was announced in February, but the evaluation phase for AFTv5 on the French and German Wikipedias did not start until April. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
