Hi Brion,
Just to clarify...does this mean we should or should not add to:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Summer_of_Code_2007/ proposals
Or should we just make suggestions on the email list.
Probably great to stick it on the page so everyone's in one place...
I'd nominate working on the Category page to see if there's a way to precalculate the article and subcategory counts, and to make the navigation of long lists of subcategories and articles more like the All Pages special page. The SplitCategoryPage extension I've posted is undoubtedly not up to the code quality spec of the real developers, doesn't do all of the above, and is sloooow. But it might be a nice project for a mentee to work on a similar functionality with better supervision.
That might actually be handy, yes. :)
