Hey all, As a lot of you already know, I'm again doing a Google Summer of Code project for the WMF this year. The goal of this *awesome* project is to create a set user friendly administration interfaces via which administrators can manage the configuration of their wiki and extensions as well as manage extension installation and updating. The user experience should be as *awesome* as the Wordpress one, or even better.
After doing research in existing code and talking to the relevant people, I created a little roadmap [0] of how I plan to proceed with my project. Any feedback and comments on this would be very much appreciated (esp the critic ones :). It'd be to bad to reinvent things already achieved by people, simply by me not knowing about it! I hope to start with the actual coding by this weekend, and will update the roadmap, and the docs page itself [1], as well as my blog [2], as I make progress.
