A cool software history project, "Architecture of Open Source Applications," asked MediaWiki for a short history of our software. So we're collecting your historical knowledge, stories and opinions on MediaWiki's architecture. Go to

to find out more, and go to the orange "Add your piece." box to share your thoughts. We have a few questions for you to answer. If you have a few minutes to answer them, please do it by September 30th so Guillaume Paumier and I have time to organize all the contributions into one coherent narrative.
Sumanah, you probably want to conduct an interview with Magnus and lcrawte for the very early history. Then Brion and Tim will be able to complement. Gabriel Wicke should be able to retrace the monobook skin history.
