Проблеми
- Some edits that used the visual editor were not working. This has now been fixed. [1]
- Last week's Tech News had delivery problems. Some did not get the newsletter. Some got it more than one time. The developers are working on the problem. [2]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 24 септември. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 25 септември. It will be on all wikis from 26 септември (calendar).- You will be able to read but not to edit an important number of mid-sized wikis for up to 30 minutes on 24 September at 05:00 (UTC). You can see which wikis. [3]

You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 25 септември at 15:00 (UTC). See how to join.
Future changes
- Internet Explorer 6 and 7 might not be supported in the future. This means the browsers might start looking a bit weird. They would not get security support. This is because almost no one uses the browsers anymore. Supporting them makes the wikis less secure for everyone else. [5]
