I've come across Mediawiki 1.6, it offers new features and shiznitz. What do you guys think about upgrading? Do we need the features? For a full list of changes check [http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/tags/REL1_6_0/phase3/RELEASE-NOTES here].

I've come across Mediawiki 1.6, it offers new features and shiznitz. What do you guys think about upgrading? Do we need the features? For a full list of changes check here. Gimmie some input -- Nik Doof 05:35, 27 April 2006 (EDT)
Oh cool .. they've fFixed some of the things which have been bothering me. Like in Templates:
- Categories and "what links here" now update as expected when adding or removing links in a template.
- Template parameters can now have default values, as {{{name|default value}}}
That category thing has been bugging me. And having default values is interesting, as well. This makes good sense too, useful fFrom our perspective here:
- The account creation form has been separated from the user login form.
So I'll say it would be nice to have the upgrade, if it's not very difficult to implement. Yes please. Scott 16:11, 27 April 2006 (EDT)
