10 PM on a Sunday!? Are you busting the overtime budget along with the
workaholics in the CA team?
Hah, not quite. I've just learned that I have bursts of productivity late
at night on Sundays, and learned to embrace it... much like the folks in
the CA team, I guess. ;-)
Anyway, could you or Maryana say how many devs are
and are planned for
on mobile web?
I doubt that team will be growing soon; it grew a lot recently, going from
3 to 7 devs in the space of a few months or so. When a team grows so
rapidly it needs time to find its feet afterwards. Tomasz is the mastermind
behind the engineering team though, so I defer to him for comments on this.
Also, are there product roadmaps for Android, iOS and
Mobile Web that
are published?
For the Wikipedia app (which is a single product encompassing both iOS and
Android, so only has one roadmap), there is this:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Apps/Product_roadmap/Wikipedia_app.
Note that it's out of date by quite a few months and needs updating; I've
put a note on my calendar for tomorrow to do that.
Mobile Web is presently split in to two teams, WikiGrok and Collections.
I'm not sure where their roadmaps are kept. I could rattle off what they're
both doing, but really the most accurate and up-to-date explanations would
come from the PMs for those teams; Maryana can tell you about WikiGrok and
Jon Katz can tell you about Collections.
Thanks,
Dan
