After a furiously paced week I'm happy to release
RC2 of the Wikipedia
Android application. Brion and Yuvi did a lot of stability cleanup,
caching fixes, and in general magician work to get this closer to
market release. Note that we've also changed 'bookmarks' to 'saved
pages'. Were pushing fast to get this ready to launch by January
13th.
Testing in Android 2.3.3 on Droid Pro. Really, really nice. Pages load
fast and generally without issues. Saving pages is easy and seems to
work fine.
Issues:
* Haven't been able to get "Nearby" to work; it just shows me a gray
background with placemarks and Google logo on it (map tiles don't
load).
* Still some viewport issues where templates or other page content
might cause the page to scroll horizontally. I know this is a long
tail of issues, many of which have to be fixed in templates, site CSS,
etc.
Cheers,
Erik
