HasGeek will sponsor the internet connection for this event. If you have
any experience pulling data from Wikipedia, you know that the internet
connection makes all the difference.

We recently got a blazing fast 20 Mbps line installed at CIS. To use it,
connect to the HasGeek SSID. The password is on the notice board. The
WiFi is a mesh with multiple APs to ensure everyone gets connected.

Best,
Kiran

 Hello everyone!

 After the Unofficial Chennai Wikimedia Hackathon's success[1], me and
 Srikanth Lakshmanan are planning on having one in Bangalore. We've
 talked to CIS and they've graciously accepted to host us on the May
 19th.

 Here's a draft page with details about the hackathon:
 http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bangalore_Hackathon_May_2012

 It definitely needs more work, so feel free to edit away! Also if you
 people have ideas on what would help, please add to
 http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bangalore_Hackathon_May_2012/Ideas.

 Thanks!

[Wikimediaindia-l] MediaWiki pretty URL bug report

2010-10-31 Thread Kiran Jonnalagadda 
Hello,

Is this list an appropriate place to be discussing MediaWiki issues?

I was recently setting up a MediaWiki-based wiki and came across a use case
where it did not generate pretty URLs consistently (in function
Title-getLocalURL). I've filed a bug report and submitted a patch:
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25718

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25718As far as I can tell,
this does not break existing links anywhere in a typical MediaWiki
installation such as Wikipedia, but the commentators on the bug report don't
seem convinced.

Could this list with its collective understanding of Wikipedia and
MediaWiki's features be kind enough to comment? It seems like I've touched
something at the core of how MediaWiki works, but in a part of the
getLocalURL function that is rarely used.

Best,
Kiran

 So Android uses Unicode fonts, fonts may not be available.. Just complain
 LOUDLY and PUBLICLY and together that not supporting fonts for Indic
 languages is not acceptable in India (and outside of India grin ).


Android 1.5 did not support Indic rendering at all. AFAIK, this problem
continued until 2.0.

Android 2.1 does not support web fonts and Indic fonts are not shipped with
any device I know of.

Android 2.2 does support web fonts and indic rendering, but doesn't ship
with fonts either. Here's a quick test page for anyone who wants to check
from their phone:

 Hi folks,
 I know it is very very late for this now.. Can we have some wikipedia
 participation for the upcoming FOSS.in conference at Bangalore ?


I've submitted a workout session proposal for the MediaWiki API access
framework I described at the last meetup.
