= Development = * Reorganized the three git repos for our extensions into one. (This made us very happy and will cause fewer tears in the future. ;-)) * Added title normalization * Edits in the repo now have a comment added in the history entry * Sent proposal about interwiki table in MediaWiki core: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2012-June/061069.html * Finalized implementation of user interface for editing and adding aliases * Started review of Wikidata branch with Tim Starling * Untangled Wikibase Libs from Wikibase Repo code (removed cross-dependencies) * Refactored ItemView * Launched 20% code review session * Revised the storyboards for linking between Wikipedias * Checked what is left that absolutely needs to be finished before the demo at Wikimania
