A while ago, a discussion was started about the rewrite project, bug was
left unfinished. In order to help it reach a consensus, I'm
summarizing the discussion up to here, with the hope that you'll read
this rather long email and comment about the uncertainities left.
Unfortunately I have not had many time on my hands the last month, but as
no-one has replied to your mail, I suppose the summary is fairly good :)
Russ Blau has made some recent changes to
http://botwiki.sno.cc/wiki/Rewrite that are very interesting. I suggest to
continue the discussion there, although a wiki environment is not too
well-suited for that type of task ;)
I will finalize the coding style guidelines; using_underscores for
function names, which means we can start coding \\o (of course, someone
else could have finalized them, too. I'm not your pywikipedia project
benevolent dictator or sth ;))
Bryan (...) also
suggested having a code name for our rewrite project (rather than, for
example, "pywikipedia 2.0" which was perhaps coined by Misza).
What about 'procrastination' or something in that region? I have a feeling
this project may change my procrastination into something actually
useful.. just not useful for my [study|work|etc] ;)
In any case, I suppose work can commence on the backend parts like the
http and api lib. Please create a botwiki page to have discussion about
the specific implementation. I do have one issue about the page class,
which can be read at http://botwiki.sno.cc/wiki/Rewrite/Page . Please put
comments there.
