This is awesome. Congratulations to Gabriel and the rest of the team.
I'll surely hope this will provide a stable platform for getting
Wikimedia content on even more platforms.

A full-featured multi-platform app would be pretty shortday now
(especially if you want to get it past the app review process on iOS).
A nice mobile website would be a better option IMHO.
Let me know if you need any help on that.

Apparently the codec itself isn't as good as H264, and patent problems

I'm not a git expert, but a
As far as i know, the current trend is more towards Git than towards
Bazaar. It's not a bad system, but Git seems to have more traction at
the moment.

I think it would be a good start to spice up the page and add to link
to the app description on iTunes too. The description has a line
saying 'come and help us if you're good in HTML5/JS!' text, but no
link to follow or where to get more information (maybe somewhere in
the app itself too?)

I'm sorry that you seem to have such bad experiences with Jav
Javascript might have gotten a bad name in the past because of 14-year
olds who used it to display 'Welcome to my website!' alerts on their
Geocities homepage, but it's really unfair. Javascript is a very
flexible and dynamic language that can be written very elegantly.
I urge everyone who still t
I would opt for Javascript.
PHP and Python are intended for large and complex applications and
come with a huge standard library people probably expect to be
available. Security concerns are a problem too, so a subset would
probably be necessary So, in essence you get a crippled-down language

That's great news. I've been programming in JavaScript quite a lot the
last few years and i think i would've probably gone insane if i hadn't
discovered jQuery. Especially for complex and intricate HTML
selections it's pretty amazing what you can do with jQuery.
Also, the fact that animations are

I don't know if making such an infobox that does not support IE6 and
IE7 is a good idea. If you would take out all inline style elements
and replace with them classes that are available in a general
stylesheet it would already safe a lot of the cruft in the original
code.

Hmm.. so anytime you visit Wikipedi
Unfortunately, IE6 (and IE7 as well) are problems that all web sites
got to live with. IE6 is still used by about 34% of all web users
(according to the latest statistics from thecounter.com), so banning
those users or not paying attention to problems they might have with
certain website elements i
I think that any initiative of a new backup or download possibility of
Commons files should be welcome. If the whole Commons collection is
indeed only located on two servers in the whole world that gives me a
little bit of a scary feeling...
