This week's IRC meeting[edit]
- T130567 RFC: Hygienic transclusions for WYSIWYG, incremental parsing & composition,
- T114444 DOM scopes, and T114445 Balanced templates: (Tim) The discussion exposed two main questions: 1) How to best resolve content model conflicts, and 2) whether to (eventually) default to balanced templates or not. The implementation in T114445 proposes a solution to mark specific templates for balancing, and explores two options for conflict resolution. The discussion will continue on the tasks.
Next week’s IRC meeting[edit]
- T91162 Shadow namespaces (brion): A proposed mechanism for sharing content like templates or modules cross-wiki, similar to how InstantCommons and foreign file repos work. Kunal is getting ready to work on this.
