Tasks

High-priority

• If !$wgUseSquid, use memcached to cache startup module
• Add remote image base path to ResourceLoaderFileModule and use it for non-embedded CSS images
  • For e.g. i18n use in user scripts
• Maintenance script to clear out removed modules
• Ask Tim about MessageBlobStore::clear()
• Port Michael's wikitext-in-JS code (for PLURAL and stuff) bug 20962
• Exporting of variables/settings in a module-driven way (with segregation!)
  • Krinkle is willing to help with this
• Table sorting
  • replace old sortable table code with http://tablesorter.com - requires resolving bug 4740
    • See also bug 8028
  • or: update with new version [1][2] (test this extensively for compatibility!) and rewrite in jQuery (again lots of testing!)

Medium-priority

• Port remaining skins to ResourceLoader bug 25640
• Enable for-content message exporting
• Generally give more thought to message stuff and client-side (on-wiki) module registration
• Rewrite wikibits and all other legacy code as "modern" code (status)

Low-priority

• Do some profiling to find any remaining culprits
