Hi,
great work.
Will the final version include the "Wikipedia Portal" menu item by
default? I think the MediaWiki release shouldn't contain any
Wikipedia-specific strings.
By the way: what is the recommended way of customizing the menu on the
left?
And: are there any public tools available to convert a 1.2 iso-8859-1
system to a 1.3 utf-8 installation?
Greetings
Tim
