Hi folks,
I got some quick review from Bawolff for the extension OnlineStatusBar I've been working on past weeks, the extension is allowing users to display their online status on user pages and have some support on english wikipedia for its deployment there, since it wasn't reviewed for deployment yet it's unlike it would happen soon, but there is a chance it could be installed in the future once it's ready and all issues fixed, (many users on wikipedia are already using custom statuses by editing their userpage everytime when they log in or logout so it could be useful as a replacement for that).
He noticed that it would be cool if there was a js menu for it to let users pick the status (away etc.) instead of opening preferences. I like it but unfortunately I don't understand js even a bit. So if there was someone who was able to help with that, it would be very nice! The extension is in /trunk/extensions/OnlineStatusBar so if you got an idea how to make it, valid and secure so it wouldn't cause problems if it was eventually deployed to wmf wiki(s) please go ahead :) feel free to insert your name in the about in that case.
Thanks, Peter
