Re: [Wikimedia-l] Invitation to beta-test HHVM

It has to do with timezone preferences. All times in latest changes and in my edits states time two hour wrong In am not sure what you mean with take timezone into account, I just clicked into the box as stated in your mail, and then all times changed, and when I took off the feature all times

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Invitation to beta-test HHVM

Bug filed at: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71036 To correct myself: It does NOT appear that the signature time zone is affected, that is always the local wiki default as defined in http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/InitialiseSettings.php.txt no matter what you set in appearances. Ja

Thanks!, glad you could sort this out and file a bug But really, I understand from this that this feature was released as a Beta feature without it ever been tried out on any other project then enwp, which for me indicate a proper process for Alpha test before release to beta as been missing..

[Wikimedia-l] Slideshow functionality for Wikipedia
