In the longer term we are working on the ability to store HTML
instead for new wikis, in which case it might become possible to
run without Parsoid if you don't need a wikitext editor front-end.
This is not going to happen over night and will just be an option,
so no reason to worry.

There are extensions that allow raw HTML widgets, just putting them

I know, I wrote one :) But that's not the point. The point is maintaining

There has been a lot of controversy about language support. Some of the
arguments used indicate a lack of understanding what it is language support
does. In my opinion language support is a primary requirement of MediaWiki.
MediaWiki supports languages really well.
In a blog post [1] I have

This is very useful stuff with localised in many languages.
Are you simply looking for gsoc mentors?
I wanted to discuss about the idea and very much interested to take this
further. And if the idea seems to be feasible and technically implementable
then I would like to work on this project for GSoc 2014 and would need a
mentor who can guide/help me to
Hoy all,
I've been meaning to start a thread about this for a while, but just hadn't
gotten around to it. Things have been rather heated the past few days, so I
figured now would be as good a time as any to go about starting this thread.

I basically agree with everything Marc said, but you bring up a very

No, but I don't think it's an optimal choice of name. In my view, it's

I took a closer look at Linux Libertine for possible use as a webfont for

I have very little authority to stand on, but in my exposure to so-called

real-life human situation. IMO this approach boils down to getting your

That said,
