Re: [Wikitech-l] Action Script API client library?

Both ActionScript and JavaScript are ECMAScript languages and are thus pretty similar. I last did AS coding about 4 years ago but I don’t think the language has changed significantly since then. I’d be surprised if there was an ActionScript library for MediaWiki, so your bes

[Wikitech-l] Action Script API client library?

Hi, Does anyone know a MediaWiki API library written in Action Script? I have an AS developer willing to start learning about MW and I wanted to make it easy for him. If not, what would be a near language that we do have a library for? JS? Java? Thanks, Strainu

[Wikitech-l] Toolserver Error 502

Any idea what is going on with Toolserver? I've noticed several times over the past few days that it's been very slow to run tools, or just non-functional at all, giving a 502 error. With the Steward elections going on, I suspect a lot of people will be trying to make use of the tool at [0] to

[Wikitech-l] Hong-Kong citizens being unable to upload big content to Commons

Hi It seems that people in Hong-Kong are not able to upload big content (for example videos) to Commons due to (what looks like to be) a lack of connectivity between their Internet provider and the Wikimedia datacenters (but Youtube works well). I reported about that on Bugzilla: https://bugzilla
