Please note we don't use an up to date version of Semantic MediaWiki on wikitech, but an unsupported one.

@Dereckson SemanticMediaWiki is no longer needed for the rebranded extension which is why it was rebranded. It should still support this SemanticMediaWiki version.

"should"? Does it or does it not? I guess we use SMW and SF in conjunction with each other... so just because new PF doesn't need SMW, doesn't mean we can do this

@Reedy - SF/PF's support for SMW (in terms of handling old versions) hasn't changed in a long time, for what it's worth.

Depending on how long that ends up taking... I may suggest we jfdi this for the security stuff bawolff reported and is being fixed

Also, we should stop branching PageForms. I think i have a patch on gerrit for it
