Ok, good to know. But I think we can keep it as it is: nobody even complained. It is probably about time to drop support for MW 1.13 and earlier (it was kept more or less because there was no problem with it). Even 1.14 is not really relevant any more, or at least conforming to the code style guideline for newer versions is more important. -- Markus > > > On Fri, Sep 10, 2010 at 5:53 AM, Markus Krötzsch > <mar...@semantic-mediawiki.org> wrote: >> On 09/09/2010 21:19, Alex Kozak wrote: >>> I'll be devil's advocate and say I think this is somewhat unfortunate. >>> But I do understand the reasons behind it. >>> >>> It's worth mentioning that sometimes upgrading MW can be "expensive" for >>> an organization, but not as much for an extension.
