(If the preprocessing is done during message loading, then probably less of a deal for MediaWiki itself, which still relies on a server to load up the messages in the first place.) However we also use client-side JS localization for our Android application (soon to migrate to other platforms), which uses a pruned-down mediawiki.js for its localization framework. Having plural work there would be a plus. -- brion _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
