MediaWiki LTS Upgrade & Maintenance
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
We want a long-term relationship with a developer to port our EOL MW 1.37.9 application (Wiki) to MW 1.39 LTS and then to maintain the Wiki at our DigitalOcean staging and production servers. The developer will:
1. Make any necessary upgrades to the server stack, including any new MW 1.39 LTS requirements for software versions that have been added, deleted or required to be upgraded.
2. Upgrade the MW extensions to 1.39.x with all changes reflected at GitHub.
3. Fully test the upgraded extensions programmatically in the new MW LTS/server environment
4. Fix any bugs arising from our test suite testing against the fully upgraded staging server.
5. When the testing/bug fixing is complete, deploy the staging environment to the production server.
6. Test the backup process by restoring the production backup to the staging server.
7. For a monthly retainer, monitor for the next 1.39.x LTS release, stack security releases, and any unavoidable stack software upgrades.
8. Implement such changes at an hourly rate.
Our current developer will be available to answer questions now and during implementation.
