Hoi,
The big problem with upgrading MediaWiki is the upgrading of extensions. It
is not documented anywhere if extensions will work with a specific release
of MediaWiki. Being able to install extensions is a great thing when you
know upfront that the extensions you are interested in will actually work
and not crash your installation.
Thanks,
GerardM
