I missed this email, sorry for the delay. Is there a
list of domain names
that are in use for the mobile apps? I can cross-reference those domains
with the load balancer IPs.
There shouldn't be anything outside of those that gets hit, that I can
think of. The apps mostly are using HTTPS these days, with some fallbacks
to HTTP for old OS versions (and we may have to add them for China/Iran
too).

Rupert, I saw your question regarding Wikipedia
Zero. Wikipedia Zero is
currently targeted for the mobile web, but I'll take this question back
to
the business team as to whether we'd be able
to support zero-rating of
apps
traffic at some point in the future, at least in
locales where moderate
bandwidth is available.
I think that once the zero-rating is switched to support HTTPS by using
IP-based instead of Deep Packet Inspection-based HTTP sniffing, ISP
partners wouldn't actually be able to distinguish between mobile web and
mobile apps content unless we actively choose to make them use separate
IPs
and domain names.
Especially if, as we think we're going to, the future Wikipedia mobile
app
will consist mostly of native code widgets and
modules that plug into the
web site embedded in a web control... it'll be loading mostly the same
web
pages from the same servers, but running a
different mix of JavaScript.
