  • Thank yous:
    • Everyone who helped push through the changes to support ES6 in MediaWiki: Timo Tijhof (Krinkle) and DannyS712 for code reviewing the ResourceLoader and minifier changes, Lucas Werkmeister for finding a critical bug in the minifier change, and James Forrester and Ed Sanders for code reviewing the linter changes and releasing new versions of all these packages.
  • Updates:
    • MediaWiki now has built-in support for writing modern JavaScript (ES6)!
      • You can now use ES6 code in MediaWiki core, extensions, and skins, as long as it's in a feature that doesn't need to support IE11. ResourceLoader modules that use ES6 code have to be flagged as such, and you will need to put ES6 code in a separate directory so that different eslint rules can be applied. For detailed instructions on how to start using ES6 in your code, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ResourceLoader/ES6 .
      • See wikitech-l for the full announacement
