Not all extensions. The relevant bits of the (new, as of two weeks ago!) policy: * Developers SHOULD update any extension or skin bundled with the MediaWiki tarball when soft deprecating, and MAY update popular extensions * If they don't submit patches, developers MUST file bugs about bundled extensions/skins using deprecated functions so their maintainers can work on updating them. * Extensions and skins bundled with the MediaWiki tarball MUST NOT trigger hard deprecation warnings and MUST be updated to use the new code. But that's just for bundeled extensions, not deployed extensions. There is this: * As one of the principles of MediaWiki, developers should ensure any removals will not cause issues in the Wikimedia setup and extensions deployed there. If they do, developers should expect to be reverted by Wikimedia system administrators. But that's only removals, not deprecation. -- Daniel Kinzler Principal Platform Engineer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
