Now, Rory, wiki users don't steal. We don't do "theft" on this mailing
list. We're nice people. We coerce, and bash people over the head with
bricks when they don't do what we want...and if they just so happen to
have something we like, we might lift it from them. But we never
steal. Don't you know that stealing is wrong?
I reckon we should encourage a *lot* more cross-project collaboration.
I'm rather pleased to see that we're having a more diverse bunch of
new committers, who have different regional perspectives on things,
and the i18n team is growing like there's no tomorrow. I guess it's a
side-effect of all this wiki stuff, and I don't think there's anything
wrong with it.
Someone (Brion, I think) once suggested a repository of nifty scripts
and stuff. If we made it easy to manage the things, then perhaps we
could encourage people from all over to dump their custom JavaScript
thingies into it. Another angle could be to look for cute skin
customisations, turn these into independent skins, and place them in
MediaWiki (or at least install them as skins for Wikimedia users)...
