Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Fwd: [WikimediaMobile] Setting the game for a fresh Wikipedia app

We are at that point where we need to share a common vision, so let's check how much we agree already. :) http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Projects/App_Features_% 26_Roadmap#Rationale describes an app that imho would be great to have for the Wikimedia community and beyond. Warning: there is no feasibility check done on those features yet. But if you like them we might be able to get someone with the skills to investigate what is easy, what is though but doable and all the rest. Developing those features through iterations in a reference HTML5/CSS/Javascript implementation will make easier to have ports for specific platforms, hopefully requiring just a little extra work (as opposed to rewriting for each platform). Being an open source application developed openly may also help getting some of these "community features" implemented in the many commercial apps around, currently focusing only on read-only use cases. If the features are cool and we give them the code for free... -- Quim _______________________________________________ Mobile-l mailing list Mobile-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mobile-l -- Naveen Francis _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
