This Wednesday, I'll be conducting a bug triage of bugs related to mobile devices and the new MobileFrontend Extension. In order to get as much non-WMF interest as possible, I'm announcing the triage two days early.
If you have a wiki that you would like to add mobile support to, then this is the triage for you! You'll have a chance to talk to developers about the issues and, if you can help with PHP development, you'll be able to see which bugs are most important to you to be fixed and even get some hints to begin diving into the code yourself.
The MobileFrontend extension (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MobileFrontend) is about to go into a test deployment on Wikipedia, so this is the perfect time to get involved!
Here is are the bugs that I'm going to be choosing from for this triage. If you want to make sure a particular mobile-related bug is addressed in this Triage, email me the bug # and then join us on Wednesday. If you see something here that you'd like to try to fix, even better!
Is the MobileFrontend extension development being monitored or reviewed by any senior developers? I took a look at the code today and it seemed incredibly strange. Some of its layout and architecture doesn't seem to be consistent with MediaWiki conventions/style and a lot of code (particularly variable assignments) looked duplicative.
Some revisions are also apparently being pushed live without any outside review.
This isn't particularly related to the bug triage, per se, I realize.
