1) Trevor is going to build a watch star widget on
client and server.
We identified that the existing watch star code is poorly written and
has resulted in MobileFrontend rewriting it. We decided to target this
as it is a simple enough example that it doesn't need a template. It's
small and contained enough that we hope this will allow us to share
ideas and codify a lot of those. Trevor is hoping to begin working on
this the week of the 2nd September.
2) We need a templating system in core. Trevor is going to do some
research on server side templating systems. We hope that the
templating RFC [1] can get resolved however we are getting to a point
that we need one as soon as possible and do not want to be blocked by
the outcome of this RFC, especially given a mustache based templating
language can address all our current requirements.
Hey Trevor
Are you able to update us on the current status of the above?
Have you begun work on them? Are there any patches you can point at us
(even if they are work in progress patches?)
