<br>Brion -- Perhaps a couple of core MediaWiki techs can be actively involved<br>in hacking days plans. I'm sure b6s would appreciate their input and<br>energy; and it might be a good rule of thumb for future hacking days.
</blockquote><div><br>Thank you for such kind consideration, Mr. Klein. </div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Also, if people who like hacking MediaWiki (or MediaWiki interfaces and
<br>skins) but aren't core developers or techs, want to get together and hack,<br>that sounds like a good idea to me. This would be separate from an event<br>designed for the core developers to hang out and have fun, but this
<br>doesn't mean they can't both happen.<br><br>--SJ</blockquote><div><br>I've already asked one of skin developers, Mr. Paul Gu. He may lack of the<br>schedule of his semester and firefox activities, but there's still a chance to
<br>invite him and more skin designers on<br><a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gallery_of_user_styles">http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gallery_of_user_styles</a><br><br>Therefore, if we can have Hacking Days Extra as parallel tracks besides of
<br>MediaWiki core development, it is possible to group some people to hack<br>for skins. After that, it is optional to MediaWiki commitees to pick up some<br>skins, and skin designers may also have chance to provide some thoughts
<br>about the template to the core developers: they can be happened at BOF<br>time to prevent the risk of disturbing each others.</div></div><br> Best Regards,<br>Mike<br>
