So it's about time I asked... how long until Wikia starts supporting more semantic extensions?
I've been working with many of the developers and improving on many of the extensions. In terms of the standard scalability stuff Semantic Forms is already more stable than Semantic MediaWiki itself. I personally went through SF and re-factored a fair bit of code to use proper autoloading, stub objects, and especially I killed off the message defer system short circuiting in SF (unfortunately it's going to be a bit more work to kill that in SMW itself). SF needs a bit of updates for the #arraymap and #arraymaptemplate to use SFH_OBJ_ARGS and nicely handle nested templates. But besides that they are working perfectly for what most people use them for. I helped Yaron fix up Semantic Drilldown so it did not require the ALTER privilege as well. I'm running it on my own personal WikiFarm. I haven't gotten around to the Halo extension yet, but it looks like it might be worthy of getting to. As well I'm watching the list, perhaps hopefully the author of Semantic Layers will get it into SVN at some point in time so it can get the same treatment. Actually, I'm also working on a re-factor of EditPage.php. Whenever it gets complete SF will be able to extend the edit page in MW 1.14 and this will allow the internal preview to work nicely with SF rather than the current ugly implementation. Additionally I'm working on a change to the Parser to support hooking into link syntax. That's a bit larger a task, and I'll need to make sure it doesn't rob to much performance, but when complete it should allow SMW to support nested links again. -- ~Daniel Friesen(Dantman, Nadir-Seen-Fire) of: -The Nadir-Point Group (http://nadir-point.com) --It's Wiki-Tools subgroup (http://wiki-tools.com) --The ElectronicMe project (http://electronic-me.org) --Games-G.P.S.
