==== Parsing ==== * Parsoid: ** Over last couple weeks, working on a bunch of link rendering / serialization issues (mostly edge cases) in Parsoid ** About to resume work on native implementation of <gallery> extension -- Arlo has an initial patch in gerrit which needs a round of updates. Should unblock multimedia & VE work on gallery support once this is done. ** At Wikimania hackathon, Scott worked on an update to support a more detailed Templatedata format field for serializing transclusions -- this is not finalized yet and the spec needs to stabilize before this can land. * Core parser: ** Tim working on a side-by-side preview tool to let editors see how a page would look with Tidy and with HTML5depurate - https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/296182/ ... feedback welcome, especially on the UI aspects or desirable features. Please take a look and leave comments on the patch.
