--- A number of leading browser vendors and other tech companies, including Microsoft, Google, Apple, Adobe, Facebook, HP, Nokia, Mozilla, Opera and the W3C, just announced the launch of the Web Platform Docs project at WebPlatform.org. The project aims to create ³a new, authoritative open web standards documentation site,² says Opera Software. The wiki-like site, says Opera, wants to ensure that developers can easily find ³accurate, quality information on all the latest HTML5, CSS4 and other standards features across the multitude of available web-based resources.² ---

Indeed, we're actually hosting some Git repos for the project :)

Can you explain? I find this project amazing (converging and optimizing documentation effort as opposed to keep building a dozen chapels and why not starting a new, flashy one?). And I'm very happy to see that MediaWiki has been put into use!
If the Wikimedia Foundation has got a significant involvement I think it would be nice to share here and elsewhere. This site is going to be big in no time if all those orgs indeed point their web developers there.

Sorry, that was me with my webplatform hat on. I've been helping them with infrastructure. We have a few more extensions that haven't been added to Gerrit yet. We plan on doing so sometime soon.

Webplatform skin design is not consistent and catchy for languages like Malayalam, Tamil or Hindi as for English. But what, they've enabled even Narayam. :-)
