Hello all,

I would like to announce the release of MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle 2015.10. This bundle is compatible with MediaWiki 1.24.x and MediaWiki 1.25.x releases.

Next MLEB is expected to be released in 3 months. We are trying less frequent releases due to low number of changes per month in the included extensions. If there are major changes or important bug fixes, we will do intermediate release. Please give us your feedback at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:MLEB.
