The forthcoming, rebooted Wikipedia app for Firefox, geared at developing and emerging markets, could in principle be munged to work on other platforms, like the Chrome Web Store. The HTML5 < --- > web app conversion cuts both ways. I believe Jon, and maybe others on the core mobile web team, is examining LocalStorage / AppCache enhancements for the mdot web experience. Jon and I are going to talk tradeoffs regarding shoehorning mdot into the app for Firefox versus starting fresh, looping Tomasz Finc and Dan Foy in for prioritization. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
