The latest topics in this discussion are at least a year old.  Does that mean that there is a better solution than using this extension?

Do you only need the Amazon S3 part? (to store images in S3)

  1. I have a stable fork of S3-related functionality of Extension:AWS. It has been used in production for more than a year. If you want, I can send you the current state of the code.
  2. I did send patches to Extension:AWS, but some very important bugfixes which make it stable (e.g. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/255534/ ) are sadly not yet merged into Extension:AWS.
  3. Unfortunately, the maintainer seems to be unresponsive, and I can't contact him.

I don't know what to do here. Edward Chernenko (talk) 00:55, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for sharing this with me.

@Edward Chernenko Do you probably want to publish the extension/fork on mediawiki.org and probably also host it in gerrit (which would bringt the benefit, that core-developers can look for it when removing deprecated code, which may be used by your extension :)

Sure, why not.

Will create the page for it (and move it to Gerrit) in a week or so.
