I agree aswell. From the installs of MediaWiki I did so far this year for websites, pretty much all of 'em are specifically requesting the "Wikipedia software" (because asuming) that MediaWiki is what Wikipedia runs. Which, by all means, is true. However, installing it in such a way that the end result is comparable in terms of features is yet another. (for example the element ID change that mismatched between the UsabilityInitiative-extension and the Vector-skin (#mw-panel etc.)). The UsabilityInitiative has worked hard on making a new look and feel for MediaWiki. So I think it makes sense that both the PHP backend, HTML-structure and CSS, aswell as the JavaScript involved are being made available as one "Vector", as supposed to seperated. Also, for what it's worth, I personally found the name "UsabilityInitiative" as Extension partially confusing aswell. Since the UsabilityInitiative "team" made the Vector "skin" aswell, which was coded in the core from the beginning. Why some part got split up as 'extending' was unclear to me. Looking forward to 1.17 :-) -- Krinkle _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
