What I'm asking for: if you change this to no longer be the default URL, then please make it so that, by default, previous site.name/index.php/articlename URLs *continue* to Just Work. If someone innocently upgrades from the tarball, breaking legacy URLS on their intranet strikes me as bad practice. - d. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
