Not even a mention of 1.18... or was it released after the bot set off? --80.4.202.61 (talk) 07:17, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The MediaWiki 1.18 release has yet to be sanctioned by the Arbitration Committee. Skomorokh 07:19, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but I'm lost. The Arbitration Committee has nothing to do with MediaWiki (that I'm aware of, at least), and the Committee's role doesn't include sanctioning new releases (in either of the opposite meanings of the word "sanction"). I'd appreciate some clarification here. Thanks, Newyorkbrad (talk) 23:44, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure Skomorokh's point was that this is the Arbitration Report and hence there should be no surprise that it does not mention 1.18, which is covered in the Tech report. Presuming it was meant as a general question, yes, the announcement came too late for the Tech report. - Jarry1250 ^{[Weasel? Discuss.]} 16:07, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That makes eminent sense. Thanks for the reply. Regards, Newyorkbrad (talk) 17:11, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The page is still marked {{Signpost draft}}? -- John of Reading (talk) 09:44, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've boldly removed that, figuring that if the paper is published it's probably not a draft. :) Apologies if I'm wrong. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 11:11, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Should have been subst'd, apologies. Skomorokh 15:01, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
