Hi,
we've released v0.40.0 and follow-up hot fix v0.40.1 of OOUI library
last Friday.
It will rollout on the normal train tomorrow, Tuesday, 11 August.
Highlights in this release:
- Removal of Internet Explorer 8 specific code and fallbacks, largely
reducing size of CSS (~800+ lines on all icons) due to removal of PNG
fallback images, relying only on SVG icons from here on. This is going
to have a positive performance impact for all other users of the
library.
This is in alignment with approved RFC on removing IE 8 Basic support
for MediaWiki core.[0]. Hence, this release is a breaking release. If
you need continuous support in your environment for IE 8 you need to
stick with v0.39.3.
You can find details on additional new features, code-level, styling
and interaction design amendments, and all improvements since v0.38.0
in the full changelog[1].
If you have any further queries or need help dealing with breaking
changes, please let me know.
As always, interactive demos[2] and library documentation is available
on mediawiki.org[3], there is comprehensive generated code-level
documentation and interactive demos and tutorials hosted on
doc.wikimedia.org[4].
OOUI version: 0.40.1
MediaWiki version: 1.36.0-wmf.4
Date of deployment to production: Regular train, starting Tuesday 11 August
