Thread:Talk:MediaWiki 1.23/Manual:Skin autodiscovery/reply (9)

Yup, we'll probably need some extra magic in the next release to handle this well. We might retain some minimal form of skin autodiscovery for a few versions just to require the four "former core skins" if they're there and are not required explicitly. This has been discussed briefly on https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/135439/ (which is not the very best venue for such a discussion, to be honest).
