Hi guys,
This weekend I went to the dev meeting in Berlin. Spoke to a number of people and now I have some things i want to work on:
*Mailing lists : Already did a post about that a while ago (you probably missed that one). Bug filed at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18388 *I18n : I talked to Siebrand about moving translations to translatewiki and importing these into pywikipedia. This would give us an easy way to get a lot of our messages translated. *User messages: Currently when you run a bot you'll get flooded with a lot of messages. I would like to introduce message levels (like in syslog) to be able to control this. From the rfc: 0 Emergency: system is unusable 1 Alert: action must be taken immediately 2 Critical: critical conditions 3 Error: error conditions 4 Warning: warning conditions 5 Notice: normal but significant condition 6 Informational: informational messages 7 Debug: debug-level messages
*Global botflag: Currently pywikipedia doesn't seem to understand global flags. *Api: We should probably keep in touch with the api people. For example implementing a namespace filter on the api side shouldn't be to difficult. Fancy pagegenerators could probably be implemented in the api too.
