--- Comment #10 from Krinkle <[email protected]> --- Update on this front: Gadget authors have not yet been given a fair chance to migrate their scripts. Disabling this now will needlessly upset users and break actively deployed user applications on mediawiki.org. Given the complex nature of our user scripts (cross-loading from different wikis), we'll definitely need a phase where these emit deprecation notices so that developers have the chance of migrating their scripts *before* we boldly remove it hoping they'll quickly fix it. That's counting on breakage as the means to communicate change and I dont like that. Right now we have about a dozen other highly visible migrations going on in the front-end. These legacy globals is not one of them. They haven't been announced very publicly, have no deprecation warnings for developers either. They're also cheap to maintain compatibility for. I wouldn't prioritise pushing for the removal of these in the current MediaWiki release cycle. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
