Hi folks,

We’re making good progress on Media Viewer (1), and would like to invite you to 
test the current beta version v0.2, so we can get it ready for wider release in 
coming months.

We’ve developed a number of new features in recent weeks, which are listed at 
the top of our Media Viewer discussion page (2). We would love it if you could 
review the ones labeled ‘ready for testing’. You are also welcome to check our 
specifications for features that are ‘coming soon’.

We also invite you to join our Media Viewer Chat on IRC (3), this Friday, 
February 21, 2014 at 18:00 UTC. This is a good opportunity to discuss these 
features together, and our development team will be ready to answer your 
questions over Wikimedia's Office IRC Channel.

We’ll send more updates on this product as it develops. Our goal is to release 
the current version of Media Viewer v.0.2 by the end of this quarter on a few 
pilot sites — with a wider release next quarter. We are also starting design 
work on the next version v0.3, which would support more media file formats such 
as audio and video, to be developed next quarter. (4)

We look forward to discussing this project with you on-wiki and via IRC very 
soon.

All the best,


Fabrice
on behalf of the Multimedia Team (4)
