This would be best answered by Brandon.From a personal point of view if the mobile site still looks like a mobile site in a desktop browser at the start of next year I will be somewhat disappointed with myself.
I personally believe that mobile is the likely method for accelerating athenas development as there are less blockers to do that.
A lot of the existing bottle neck from my perspective is due to a lack of volunteer developers in the many mobile projects which slows important things like this down. Aside from the new design we are also planning some cool stuff for Wiki loves monuments with image uploading via mobile phones to commons. Poke me off list if you are keen to give time/expertise to help accelerate important initiatives like this. :) On Jul 27, 2012 8:34 AM, "John Elliot" jj5@jj5.net wrote:

The Wikipedia mobile site is being made mobile first using responsive design techniques. The plan is for it to eventually mature into a responsive Athena skin that can also be used on desktop.
Any idea about when the responsive Athena skin might be ready? 1 month, 3 months, a year?
