Hi John,

Thank you for the quick reply and answers to my email.

It all sounds very exciting and it is about time that we have the public SVN
repository. I am sure that it is of interest not only to Wikia and its
employees, but also to its developers and translators — finally a great way
to get extension messages translated to many languages (including some
obscure ones you've never heard of ;-) Also, who are the techs supporting
the SVN project in addition to Artur? And which techs can we poke in case of
problems/questions? What is the approximated ETA for public SVN, is it this
weekend?

I am very pleased that public bug tracker is likewise being worked on. After
all, the lack of a public bug tracker is one of the things end-users dislike
about Microsoft, despite the fact that Microsoft's operating systems are
very popular. It is no wonder why Mozilla's Firefox and other software are
gaining more and more users, day by day; they have open bugtracking and
quite different support from the one that Microsoft offers to their
customers.

Are we going to use Inside Wikia (http://inside.wikia.com) as a place to
discuss the public SVN and other related topics? After all, Inside Wikia was
supposed to be a communication gateway between users and Wikia's techs, but
it has been relatively quiet over the last few months. Another thing I would
like to mention, is you have made several promises in the past about the
public SVN, but you have always fallen through on them. For instance, at one
time you said it would be opened "next Friday", that was several weeks ago,
and many Fridays have passed since. How about setting a definite deadline,
instead of just, "soon" or "next Friday"?

I am looking forward to hearing more about the SVN and the upcoming
announcement that you mentioned would be taking place within the coming
week. Keep up the hard work, guys!

Thanks,
