Hoi,

Ok ... ten questions ... I want to publish the answers on my blog before the pywikipedia bugday (october 24)... if only to get as many people as possible to attend.

When I send questions, I always indicate that some questions may not work well. <grin> I can replace a question if need be </grin>
Thanks,
       Gerard

  1. What is pywikipedia?
  2. As I understand it there are two versions, core and compat. What is pywikipedia core and what is compat?
  3. Why keep them both, it must be a lot of work to have to maintain them both
  4. Recently all the bugs have been moved to bugzilla ... What is it that you hope to achieve by this?
  5. Recently all the code has been moved to git ... What is it that you hope to achieve by this?
  6. What is the biggest challenge running the pywikipedia bot?
  7. How many people are using the pywikipedia bot and how many people are developing code for pywikipedia bot
  8. It is possible to use the pywikipedia bot in so many ways... Is it easy to learn what it can and cannot do?
  9. How long does it take before pywikipedia bot supports a new Wikidata data type ?
  10. There will be a pywikibot bugday... What is it and who can participate?

As I understand it Compat is the old version of pywikibot started in
2003.  Core is a full rewrite started in 2007.

But I am merely a lurker here :-]
