Hi everyone,

Pending Changes work continues apace.  The big thing we'd like to call everyone's attention to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Pending_changes/Feedback#Call_for_spe...

We'd really like to get your input on specific suggestions that we can implement quickly.  Speak now or forever hold your peace.  Well, maybe not forever, but until after November.  At least, if you want to implement your idea by November.

Here are the main development tasks that are active right now: Bug 25294 - "Reject" button confirmation screen in Pending Changes https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25294

Bug 25289 - Make review load faster by speeding up display of old revisions https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25289

We'll be deploying the updates to these just as soon as they get checked in.  Here's the location of the wiki we're using for testing development versions: http://prototype.wikimedia.org/flaggedrevs

...and finally, here's the full list of issues: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=25293

For those of you who might have missed it, Pending Changes was the primary topic for Sue Gardner's office hour last week. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours/Office_hours_Sue_2010-09-30

Please provide your input in Bugzilla if you're comfortable with that; otherwise, please remark on the feedback page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Pending_changes/Feedback

Thanks! Rob
