I think we should use directly the parser output (this means that -for some
systems- the parser cache could be straightly used).
The reprocessing method of fetching a wikipedia page then applying changes is
quite ugly.

Hampton, is the 'encode everything into entities' actually needed by some
devices?


> Will we be including support for more than just iOS/android ? (so multiple
skins ?)
There are 17 backends there: android capable iphone iphone2 kindle kindle2
nativeiphone netfront nokia_series_60 operamini palm_pre ps3 psp wap2 webkit
wii wml.

I thought we would use a meta-skin. Some changes are just using a different CSS
or changing a field type in the header (I don't think all of them are
intentional).

About the WML, it's a cool feature, although I'm not sure how right it
currently is (eg. it generates h3 without h2...). As it won't be much tested,
it could break without anyone noticing for years (for instance, faking a wml
request, I'm not getting the article content),
As for providing it, it seems easy to duplicate the reprocessing stage, and I
think the parser provides enough hooks to do it there, too.
