We have no indication that customization is possible or even considered an option, WhatamIdoing; in fact, at this point, it seems that the key issues that a project would want to customize aren't even under consideration or, alternately, are not options. Templates? no, unacceptable. Usable by the visually handicapped? Maybe sometime, but not a priority. No Javascript? No communication. The absence of a method by which to communicate with other users that does not require javascript means that this project is actively working against its own objectives. At this point, I'm ready to spend donor dollars to send our engineering team to the Philippines for two weeks and require that they use computers built before 2010 and dial-up, and accept only code that works effectively and pulls up pages in a reasonable time. This won't.

The more time I have spent looking at this, the less I find it a worthwhile replacement for talk pages; in fact, the more I dig, the less persuaded I am that this is going to improve communication and collaboration. Facebook doesn't improve communication and collaboration. LiquidThreads didn't either. Collaboration has never really been that much of a problem, comparatively speaking. I'm hard-pressed to understand why this is a big focus.
