Hi Jeff,
are all those extensions really following the Reading Web release process? If not, maybe we should add a switch to the template to not say that by default? --Tgr (WMF) (talk) 09:09, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
So not all of these extensions are currently using the release process, but they are all planned to in the near future. We've been discussing this process and which extensions we maintain recently and an action item has been created around creating Phabricator tasks for converting all of these extensions to the new release process. With that in mind, I think leaving it as-is is fine, but thanks for the question; it helped spark a discussion! --Jhobs (talk) 17:57, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
