Talk:Writing an extension for deployment

"use the "shell" keyword so that people with shell access can find the request;" - I thought people were only supposed to add shell when there's something for a shell user to do (so after it is reviewed, not before like these instructions say). Bawolff (talk) 16:58, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Good point. Fixed. Sumana Harihareswara, Wikimedia Foundation Engineering Community Manager (talk) 03:57, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Support
ECT no longer has resources (20% time) to support extensions on an ongoing basis. The doc should be updated to reflect how deployed extensions will be supported on an ongoing basis.


 * Commitment from a deployer or a engineering team to support and, if necessary, review and push changes
 * If user facing or noticeable by user commitment from product and design for the same.

 * Perhaps you can draft something for review? --MZMcBride (talk) 16:28, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

Post-deploy support plan
One thing that I think is missing from this checklist is a discussion of what happens after the extension is approved and deployed to the wiki(s). Who is responsible for fixing bugs, responding to feature requests, keeping up with MediaWiki API changes, etc.?

I don't know the answer, but I know enough to ask the question. :) --BDavis (WMF) (talk) 23:04, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
