[Pkg-mediawiki-devel] [hendry@iki.fi: mediawiki in unstable]

[Kai Hendry]

I am eager to get hold of the mediawiki packages. Can't figure out how
to access the NEW queue. And the alioth page doesn't mention any
"releases". So could someone please point out the location of them?

How long will it take to hit unstable? I have a sarge machine that I
want to run mediawiki on for a user manual. Do you think there will be
any problems? Are there backports?

"In general the upgrade from 1.4 to 1.5 schema has not been tested for
all cases, and there may be problems."

There looks like quite a leap from 1.4 to 1.5. Would it not be wise to
start working on packaging 1.5?
