Description

As per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version_lifecycle

Using https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-announce/2020-January/000245.html as a base

As per the MediaWiki version lifecycle [1], I would like to announce the formal end of life (EOL) of MediaWiki 1.33 as of next week, Tuesday June 30, 2020.

This means that MediaWiki 1.33 will no longer receive maintenance or security backports (barring an unforseen issues with the 1.33.4 release today). It is therefore strongly discouraged that you continue to use it.

It is recommended to upgrade to MediaWiki 1.34 (due to become EOL in November 2020). The current Long Term Support (LTS) version of MediaWiki, MediaWiki 1.31, is however older (and downgrading is not supported. The delayed next LTS (MediaWiki 1.35) is currently due to be released in early August 2020, and will be supported until at least June 2023.

MediaWiki 1.34 bumps the required PHP version from 7.0 in 1.33 (which is unsupported upstream), to PHP 7.2.9 or later.

Thanks!

There is bunch of cleanup to conduct in integration/config for Zuul/Jenkins.

Do we have a checklist of all steps required when we EOL a release?

Not that I know of, we probably should have though :)

I can do the clean-up bits and write them down, if you want?

IMO this should be part of / a section of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Release_checklist

I see zero recent edits on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Release_checklist and no mention of e.g. extensiondistribution.
Hence maybe done but not documented.

Jdforrester-WMF added a comment.Jul 1 2020, 10:34 AM

It's done. See:

… which is where all such documentation should live.

No idea. I don't use that document; it's out of date, and flagged as such.
