Maybe switch > component > for this bug? I disagree. I think the gadgets extension should never ship with pre-installed gadgets. This to avoid mass decentralization of gadgets (which are very hard, if not impossible, to reliably update, so we'd be left with a lot of gadgets installed on third party wikis, likely unused on most of them and not update-able). Instead this is where sharing and community comes in. Anyone can create such a gadget if he sees a need for it, and (once Gadgets 2.0 is finished) it can be natively shared with other wikis that also need it. Much like Chrome extensions or Firefox add-ons, except with multiple market places (repositories) and the wiki-admin 'decides' which repositories are trusted and are aggregated in the search and allowed for loading. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
