MediaWiki 1.40 is End of Life
by Sam Reed 29 Jun '24

29 Jun '24

(This is a re-send to mediawiki-announce, with a typo fix, as it seem Mailman ate it) As per the MediaWiki version lifecycle[1], I would like to announce the formal end of life (EOL) of MediaWiki 1.40 as of today, Friday June 28, 2024. 1.40.4 is expected to be the last release for this branch. This means that MediaWiki 1.40 will no longer receive maintenance or security backports. It is therefore strongly discouraged that you continue to use it. It is recommended to upgrade either to MediaWiki 1.41, which will be supported until December 2024, or 1.42, which will be supported until June 2025. Thanks!

Maintenance release: 1.39.8 / 1.40.4 / 1.41.2 / 1.42.1
by Sam Reed 27 Jun '24

27 Jun '24

I would like to announce the release of MediaWiki 1.39.8, 1.40.4, 1.41.2 and 1.42.1! These releases serve as a maintenance release for these branches. There is no security release for MediaWiki core and the bundled extensions this quarter. A "MediaWiki Extensions Security Release Supplement" e-mail will however follow this one, covering security updates for non-bundled extensions. The tarballs have already been uploaded as of this email, and the git tags have been pushed. Various patches aimed at PHP 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 support have been back-ported. Reports of bugs with PHP 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 support are particularly welcome, and fixes will be back-ported when possible. Please see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/php_8.0_support/, https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/php_8.1_support/, https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/php_8.2_support/ and https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/php_8.3_support/ for the relevant work boards. As a reminder, MediaWiki 1.35 became end of life (EOL) in December 2023. It is strongly recommended to upgrade to either 1.39 (the next LTS after 1.35), which will be supported until November 2025, 1.41, which will be supported until December 2024 or 1.42, which will be supported until June 2025. As a further reminder, MediaWiki 1.40 is due to become end of life (EOL) tomorrow, June 28, 2024. This will be announced separately. If you are using MediaWiki 1.40, it is strongly recommended to upgrade to either 1.41, which will be supported until December 2024 or 1.42, which will be supported until June 2025. == Release notes ==
