Hi folks,
I got some quick review from Bawolff for the extension OnlineStatusBar I've
been working on past weeks, the extension is allowing users to display
their online status on user pages and have some support on english
wikipedia for its deployment there, since it wasn't reviewed for deployment
yet it's unlike it would happen soon, but there is a chance it could be
installed in the future once it's ready and all issues fixed, (many users
on wikipedia are already using custom statuses by editing their userpage
everytime when they log in or logout so it could be useful as a replacement
for that).
He noticed that it would be cool if there was a js menu for it to let users
pick the status (away etc.) instead of opening preferences. I like it but
unfortunately I don't understand js even a bit. So if there was someone who
was able to help with that, it would be very nice! The extension is in
/trunk/extensions/OnlineStatusBar so if you got an idea how to make it,
valid and secure so it wouldn't cause problems if it was eventually
deployed to wmf wiki(s) please go ahead :) feel free to insert your name in
the about in that case.
Thanks, Peter
