security note for extension authors 404?
In the Guidelines for Applying Patches section, there's a link to security note for extension authors. This is 404'ing for me - can someone confirm? (Don't want to kill the link if it's just me). --Jimbojw 19:53, 15 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Mailing list archives ate themselves thanks to GNU mailman's shitty, unstable archive numbering system. It's there somewhere, but not at the same place. Sigh. --brion 17:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

List of SVN committers
Would it be appropriate to put a link to Tim's recent list of SVN committers on this page? --Jimbojw 16:13, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Done, thanks. Tito xd (?!?) 00:48, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Wrong link
The phrase "Always update the RELEASE-NOTES file if you fix a bug in bugzilla, or make a non-trivial change" links to http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2006-August/038544.html which does not exist. I think the link should be fixed. Huji 17:46, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the heads up, it's been fixed now. -- All the best, Nickj 00:37, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Several links to pipermail are broken. Someone should check them. 213.103.255.156 06:54, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Looks like it is that actual url reference itself that is incorrect,wikitech-l/2006-August/is available --Zven 06:12, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Obtaining write access?
Where should I request commit subversion access? Should I send an email, to whom? I want to add some extensions to the repository and continue working on them. --Sorin Sbarnea 09:00, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Procedure for submitting SSH key
Any reason the process for replacing your SSH key is different from initially submitting it? Seems logical to have new requests follow the same steps - or is there a reason all new requests shouldn't post public key on a subpage? --Varnent 23:14, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * People smarter than me are happier if most users' SSH keys initially come to us from people's personal webservers. But some requests come to us as mediawiki.org subpages and we are fine with that.

please confirm this sentence is correct
" An editor with commit access has write access to the repositoryand can submit his or her own patches or patches from others."

There was no description on the page, so I added one. Igottheconch 15:04, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
