Hi,

a short note on the status of the new skin for the wiki:

- the new skin is currently tested on staging. Staging has some real 
  data from the wiki (half a year old), so we can test the skin in 
  almost real life. This has revealed some minor CSS/Template issues I 
  am currently fixing
  (Staging is our internal testing platform and not available from the
   outside)

- the use of the new rss feed extension on the home page (which fetches 
  the RSS data from news.opensuse.org) has revealed a serious issue with
  my template: the right navigation bar on the home page does not get 
  parsed by the wiki - so wiki syntax including extension stuff will not 
  work here. I have to admit that I haven't found a solution, yet (apart 
  from a dirty hack I do not really want to implement). Anybody out 
  there with in-depth knowledge of MediaWiki templating and wiki parsing 
  functions?

Planned steps:

Once the template issue has been resolved, we are almost ready to go 
online. The last step will be to provide "ready to paste" new home 
pages on en.test.opensuse.org. Once the new skin is on production, 
these new starting pages will have to be transferred via cut & paste to 
production. Details on this procedure will follow in time.
