MediaWiki 1.21/Roadmap

Timeline edit

As with 1.20, deployments of 1.21 versions will be very different from past deployments. We moved toward very regular deployments (targeting 2 weeks), with longer stretches (e.g. 6 months) between publishing releases of the installer for third-party users. Read more.

Schedule for the deployments edit

See wikitech:Deployments for current schedule, dates, and times. Below is a summary. See the most important known bugs.
