Mailing List Archive: MediaWiki 1.35 is End of Life

As per the MediaWiki version lifecycle[1], I would like to announce the
formal end of life (EOL) of MediaWiki 1.35 as of today, Thursday December
21, 2023.

1.35.14 is expected to be the last release for this branch.

This means that MediaWiki 1.35 will no longer receive maintenance or
security backports. It is therefore strongly discouraged that you continue
to use it.

It is recommended to upgrade either to MediaWiki 1.39 (LTS), which will be
supported until November 2025, 1.40, which will be supported until June
2024, or to 1.41 (due to be released today, Thursday December 21, 2023)
which will be supported until December 2024.

Thanks!

Rest in peace 1.35.
It was such a legendary version, from adding VE and all the other changes
to the support being extended lol
