--- Comment #3 from Gregor Hagedorn <[email protected]> 2011-08-24 09:57:23 UTC --- Thanks Roan and Rob. I appreciate the advice, and can confim that 1.18alpha is working relatively well and is relatively modern. In general I still believe the development process could be coupled closer with software user (again, like it had been before 1.16) with the actual Wikipedia version. My fuzzy idea is that a full, usable, generic code version should be available to all, to allow running the same version as Wikipedia, covering and disseminating all the effort that goes into "backporting" from trunk. Only in a second branch based on the first, the Wikipedia-specific changes (like disabling/rewriting maintenance scripts, removing essential parts of code like geshi from svn, etc.) would be made. Contributing bug reports on an almost-stable 1.18 is possible, but after the release of 1.18 this will cease again, our svn updating will be caught in 1.18, while WMF will continue to backport newer developments. Bug reports then will be limited to those that a few developers experience themselves. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
