In hindsite, probably changing it on trunk should of probably got a tad more discussion (although I havn't looked for the revision where this occured to see what the CR discussion/comments are like), but it's only trunk (where stuff is ment to break), where as changing it in a release should really be where the discussion starts. As well that, our testing playground (Translatewiki) is apprently already running it so we can find these breakages. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
