I wouldn't consider this change to be truly revolutionary. Would would really be a great restructuring of the skinning system is if I could make a skin by just writing a couple of HTML templates (probably using Gabriel's DOM-based templating language), throw them in a directory and then tell MediaWiki where the directory is. However, staying on the topic that you brought up, I do agree with keeping skins in a separate directory than extensions. It implies a bit of control on our part concerning how skins need to be structured, whereas if they were extensions, we cannot place any requirements on the structure. *-- * *Tyler Romeo* Stevens Institute of Technology, Class of 2016 Major in Computer Science _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
