What the Wiki Committee did in October

[tiyire]

We are close to finishing the mediawiki upgrade - no, really this time! It is scheduled for the middle of November. A more detailed explanation about the upcoming changes will be posted soon.

Our twitter account was briefly hacked to send spam messages to people. Sorry about that, and thanks to everyone who alerted us to the problem. We have taken steps to be able to react quicker in the future.

We are sad to report that Shannon and Tuulia left the Wiki committee, and we hope to one day see them on RecentChanges again.

Any sentence that contains the word "upgrade" always fills me up with dread (and not in the fun, dirty Karl Urban way... And omg I can't believe I actually typed that up)

All upgrades tend to make my life more difficult. I hate changes... :( but I assume this upgrade is supposed to be good and useful. I'll hide over there untill it becomes familiar.

The idea is that upgrades make life more difficult for a while (or a long while...) and easier after that, but yes, that´s far from reliable - we´ll hope and see!
