That sounds interesting. I may be willing to (co-)mentor if the category redirect thing falls through. From your userpage I see you are still waiting to hear from something else. I would reccomend still officially submitting your proposal now, and just make sure to let us know if you are actually available before we have to select the proposals. As for related contrib. Since this is a make a new extension theres not much related. I would reccomend maybe a resource loader commit as this project involves lots of js. -bawolff _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
