John DuHart has embarked on a complete rewrite of the current Mobile
Frontend extension, and has decided to name it 'MobileFrontend2'.
While we would prefer it if we could work cooperatively to resolve the
existing open issues in the current MobileFrontend extension and maintain
continuity. It's understandable why John would prefer to
undertake his complete rewrite.
(See
Extension_talk:MobileFrontend#Issues_with_MobileFrontend_and_possible_rewri…
)
However, we feel that naming the rewrite 'MobileFrontend2' is problematic
as users have already started to confuse it with the current extension.
One thought was to name it to MobileSkin, but it appears that this
extension already exists and we quickly reverted that rename attempt.
We're curious to hear the rest of the engineering community's perspective
and try to gain some consensus as to how best to proceed.
