            Bug ID: 66094
           Summary: Deploy Mantle extension to WMF servers
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

Flow and MobileFrontend want to share code that is not quite ready for
MediaWiki core (core/mantle - get it?). One big example is sharing of
delivering of client side templates via ResourceLoader.

MobileFrontend has been doing this for some time, and the new extension Mantle
simply shuffles code from there into a standalone repository so that Flow can
use it without being dependent on MobileFrontend.

Sadly this is not quite ready for core - as there has been no standardisation
on a default template library.

Once deployed, MobileFrontend can add a hard dependency to Mantle by merging
the following patch:

Note: The plan is also to move Nearby functionality into the GeoData extension
and add a dependency on GeoData to Mantle.
