I want to do some work on the blocking system. Essentially, the idea is to make blocking very flexible, whilst cleaning up some of the flags that are used now.
If you do work on the blocking system, it would be very nice if you could implement global blocking (blocking across all Wikimedia wikis) which is a pretty sought-after feature (see http:// bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8707).
Even if you don't implement this straight away, if you or any of the other devs do revolutionize the blocking feature, please keep this in mind.
Thanks,
