    MediaWiki Updates (1.15.5 und 1.16.0)
    Seit Heute ist die MediaWiki Version 1.16.0 dem Beta-Stadium entwachsen.

    Zeitgleich wurde das Sicherheits- und Bugfix-Release MediaWiki 1.15.5 veröffentlicht.

    Es wird empfohlen seine Installation schnellstmöglich auf eine dieser Versionsstände zu bringen.

    **********************************************************************

    We are proud to announce the first stable release of the 1.16 series.
    Selected changes that may be of interest since MediaWiki 1.15 are:

    * Watchlists now have RSS/Atom feeds. RSS feeds generally are now
    hidden, since Atom is a better protocol and is supported by virtually
    all clients.

    * It's now possible to block users from sending email via
    Special:Emailuser.

    * The maintenance script system was overhauled. Most maintenance
    scripts now have a useful help page when you run them with --help.

    * AdminSettings.php is no longer required in order to run maintenance
    scripts. You can just set $wgDBadminuser and $wgDBadminpassword in
    your LocalSettings.php instead.

    * The preferences system was overhauled. Preferences are stored in a
    more compact format. Changes to site default preferences will
    automatically affect all users who have not chosen a different preference.

    * Support for SQLite was improved. Some broken features were fixed,
    and it now has an efficient full-text search.

    * The user groups ACL system was improved by allowing rights to be
    revoked, instead of just granted.

    * A new localisation caching system was introduced, which will make
    MediaWiki faster for almost everyone, especially when lots of
    extensions are enabled.

    By default, this new system makes a lot of database queries. If your
    database is particularly slow, or if your system administrator limits
    your query count, or if you want to squeeze as much performance as
    possible out of Mediawiki, set $wgCacheDirectory to a writable path on
    the local filesystem. Make sure you have the DBA extension for PHP
    installed, this will improve performance further.
