Thread:Talk:New skins system/Incorrect assertions/reply

As I'm sure you can see, this is a draft. Feel free to correct it. :-)

Sure. Fixed. But the comment still stands; requiring filesystem access is still inappropriate for a basic system administration task like skins. That extensions also need fixing is a known issue.

I am aware of our history; I was there. :-)

However, it is true that contributing a new skin to core has not been achieved in the past 5 years except by the Vector team, who were employed by WMF, and that when someone proposed on wikitech-l the inclusion of a new skin there was no process for them to follow that was acceptable.
