MediaWiki 1.9.0 released

MediaWiki 1.9.0 is the quarterly release snapshot for Winter 2007. While
the code has been running on Wikipedia for some time, installation and
upgrade bits may be less well tested. Bug fix releases may follow in the
coming days or weeks.


MediaWiki is now using a "continuous integration" development model with
quarterly snapshot releases. The latest development code is always kept
"ready to run", and in fact runs our own sites on Wikipedia.

Release branches will continue to receive security updates for about a
year from first release, but nonessential bugfixes and feature
development happen will be made on the development trunk and appear in
the next quarterly release.

Those wishing to use the latest code instead of a branch release can
obtain it from source control:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_SVN


1.9 includes a number of compatibility fixes since 1.8 as well as many
bug fixes and some new features, so all users who can run PHP 5 are
strongly encouraged to upgrade.

There are no changes from 1.9.0rc2 to 1.9.0 final except the version number.
