Subject: [Wikitech-l] MediaWiki Workshop: Preparing extensions for
MediaWiki 1.19 - 1/13/2012 on #wikimedia-dev
To: mediawiki-l at lists.wikimedia.org
Greetings!
Utilizing the model set by Wikimedia staff IRC office hours,
MediaWiki.org's WikiProject Extensions is presenting our first
MediaWiki Workshops for developers (volunteer and staff). ?Preparing
extensions for MediaWiki 1.19 will be held on 13 January, 2012 at
19:00 UTC in IRC (#wikimedia-dev).
This IRC workshop will be an opportunity to find out about changes in
MediaWiki 1.19 that may require revisions to extensions or skins. Also
an opportunity to ask MediaWiki developers questions regarding
extension development.
Everyone is invited to attend. ?Developers interested in serving as
"extensions" or "MediaWiki 1.19" experts are encouraged to signup as
participants at:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:WikiProject_Extensions/MediaWiki_Workshops#MediaWiki_1.19_Experts
If there's continued interest / demand, MediaWiki Workshops will
typically last one hour, and happen no more than twice a month to
present trainings, hold discussions and collaborate on community or
WikiProject Extensions projects. Facilitators host the session to
introduce any presenters, determine the order of questions, and
generally helps to keep things going. Time of day will vary in order
to offer people in different parts of the world the opportunity to
participate. Future topics will likely include MediaWiki.org
documentation, ResourceLouder orientation and workshops similar to our
inaugural chat to prepare for each MediaWiki release.
More information:

MediaWiki.org's WikiProject SysAdmins will also likely host similar
MediaWiki Workshops to help third-party wiki system administrators.
Stay tuned for more information, and chime in at:

Look forward to seeing folks next Friday! ?Please feel free to forward
this along to any interested folks.
