--- Comment #15 from Aryeh Gregor <simetrical+wikib...@gmail.com> 2011-01-03 23:47:59 UTC --- The objection to Lua was not on the part of MediaWiki users. The objection was that it would make Wikipedia content impossible to reuse on shared hosting, since they can't install Lua there. For Wikimedia use, everyone seems to agree that it's ideal. But last time we discussed it, Brion (then still CTO/lead developer) made it clear that reusability on shared hosts was a blocker issue, so Wikimedia content cannot depend on anything other than a straight PHP install. Now there's no one in a clear position to make that decision either way, so I assume we'll just see stasis here, with people who have no power to do anything pointlessly rehashing the issue on Bugzilla and/or wikitech-l indefinitely. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
