7
8 THIS IS NOT A RELEASE YET
9
10 MediaWiki is now using a "continuous integration" development model with
11 quarterly snapshot releases. The latest development code is always kept
12 "ready to run", and in fact runs our own sites on Wikipedia.
13
14 Release branches will continue to receive security updates for about a year
15 from first release, but nonessential bugfixes and feature developments
16 will be made on the development trunk and appear in the next quarterly release.
17
18 Those wishing to use the latest code instead of a branch release can obtain
19 it from source control: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_SVN

519 == Compatibility ==
520
521 MediaWiki 1.13 requires PHP 5 (5.1 recommended). PHP 4 is no longer supported.
522
523 PHP 5.0.x fails on 64-bit systems due to serious bugs with array processing:
524 http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34879
525 Upgrade affected systems to PHP 5.1 or higher.
526
527 MySQL 3.23.x is no longer supported; some older hosts may need to upgrade.
528 At this time we still recommend 4.0, but 4.1/5.0 will work fine in most cases.
529
530
531 == Upgrading ==
532
533 1.13 has several database changes since 1.12, and will not work without schema
534 updates.
535
536 If upgrading from before 1.7, you may want to run refreshLinks.php to ensure
537 new database fields are filled with data.
538
539 If upgrading from before 1.11, and you are using a wiki as a commons repository,
540 make sure that it is updated as well. Otherwise, errors may arise due to
541 database schema changes.
542
543 If you are upgrading from MediaWiki 1.4.x or earlier, some major database
544 changes are made, and there is a slightly higher chance that things could
545 break. Don't forget to always back up your database before upgrading!
546
547 See the file UPGRADE for more detailed upgrade instructions.

550 === Caveats ===
551
552 Some output, particularly involving user-supplied inline HTML, may not
553 produce 100% valid or well-formed XHTML output. Testers are welcome to
554 set $wgMimeType = "application/xhtml+xml"; to test for remaining problem
555 cases, but this is not recommended on live sites. (This must be set for
556 MathML to display properly in Mozilla.)
557
558 For notes on 1.12.x and older releases, see HISTORY.

561 === Online documentation ===
562
563 Documentation for both end-users and site administrators is currently being
564 built up on MediaWiki.org, and is covered under the GNU Free Documentation
565 License (except for pages that explicitly state that their contents are in
566 the public domain) :

569
570
571 === Mailing list ===
572
573 A MediaWiki-l mailing list has been set up distinct from the Wikipedia
574 wikitech-l list:
575
576 http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
577
578 A low-traffic announcements-only list is also available:
579
580 http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-announce
581
582 It's highly recommended that you sign up for one of these lists if you're
583 going to run a public MediaWiki, so you can be notified of security fixes.
584
585
586 === IRC help ===
587
588 There's usually someone online in #mediawiki on irc.freenode.net
