Hey if you want to make mediawiki.org a dumping ground for anything mediawiki related, have fun with that.
Well, the parent thread had a point. Let's discuss what's possible rather than just downing the current work. How can we make widgets a viable extension? Is it possible? If not, can we salvage any of the work? Maybe the widgets could be split into maintainable extensions?
For instance, there isn't a single usable extension for embedding videos in MediaWiki. Is the implementation in widgets secure? Could we break this into an actually maintained extension? I'm sure there's other widgets that would be useful as well.
