The difference being that MediaWiki is largely written by volunteers who each have their own reasons for contributing which may or may not align with what you'd like to do. If you have things you'd like to see done, you have to drive that change--either by contributing it yourself, or finding someone who's willing to work on it. When you're proposing changes that require a substantial amount of work to implement, don't be surprised when you don't have people lining up to work on it. -Chad _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
