Hi all,
A quick update re: the Upload to Commons Android app:
- We are now considered an 'official' app and have been granted permission
by WMF to use the Wikimedia Commons logo and name. As such, the app is now
named "Wikimedia Commons" <
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons> instead
of "Upload to Commons", and its icon has been changed to the Commons logo.
Ownership of the app should also soon be transferred to the WMF Google Play
account. On a practical basis, there should be no change in the use of the
app and it will still be maintained by volunteers.
- I am happy to announce that my IEG proposal for further work on the app <
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG/Improve_%27Upload_to_Commons%27_…
has been selected. :) I will be starting work on it shortly, so there will
be regular releases planned for the next 6 months. Bug/crash reports and
feedback are welcome on our Google Groups forums <
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/commons-app-android> and GitHub
page <https://github.com/nicolas-raoul/apps-android-commons/issues> as
always.
Have a great day!
Cheers,
Josephine
