Dear Developers,
I have started an thread on Mediawiki about content translation in sister
project <https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Wybcde0ippq25eko> two months
ago. (specifically on bnwikibooks) Although I have not get the proper
answer about that till now, their is any possibility to activate this
extension in sister projects? or technically is that possible? The language
team is ready to support this? Will we see it in Bangla Wikibooks in near
future?
Best regards,

Hello all,
I would like to announce the release of MediaWiki Language Extension Bundle
2021.10. This bundle is compatible with '''MediaWiki 1.35.3''' or above and
requires '''PHP 7.3.19''' or above.
Next MLEB is expected to be released in 3 months. If there are very
important bug fixes, we will do an intermediate release. Please give us

-- Kartik Mistry
== Highlights ==
* MLEB now requires MediaWiki 1.35.3 and PHP 7.3.19
* This release contains security fixes. We recommend updating as soon as
possible.
* Prevent non-wikitext pages from being marked for translation
([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/718014|Gerrit]],
[[phab:T163254|Phabricator]])
* Add support for moving talkpages when moving translatable pages
([[gerrit:c/mediawiki/extensions/Translate/+/709102|Gerrit]],
[[phab:T41023|Phabricator]])
* The translation UI (TUX) now uses the user preferred edit fonts when
displaying the source message & the editor ([[gerrit:c/719641|Gerrit]],
[[phab:T213658|Phabricator]])
== Known Issues ==
* The new Vector skin has a configuration parameter
<code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> that moves the language links from
the sidebar into a menu beside the page title. With MediaWiki 1.36, New
Vector (REL1_36 branch) and <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code> set to
true, the menu beside the title does not respond to click events and is
hence unusable. We recommend setting <code>$wgVectorLanguageInHeader</code>
to false if you are using MediaWiki 1.36.
== Babel, cldr, and LocalisationUpdate ==
* Localisation and maintenance updates.
== CleanChanges ==
* Fix: RecentChanges: When filtering with only a nonexistent user, changes

Excellent! This makes sense from Arcadia, because languages are a common
resource like biodiversity or the atmosphere.
Remember CLDR. :)
