Section "Why is Gather not part of Extension:MobileFrontend? And why build a new extension if Extension:Collection exists?"
This sections seems to be totally uninteresting for users, who want to read more about Gather as a feature (e.g. as a user on enwiki), so i suggest to just removin git? :) --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 16:43, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * what users are and are not interested may surprise you, but i doubt anyone is interested as the answer doesnt answer the question at all. Bawolff (talk) 17:00, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

please feel free. :).   what other pointers should have been in the reply instead? I am happy to elaborate differently on the answer, and you can also feel free to fix, or rephrase the question as I put it. :) Thanks--Melamrawy (WMF) (talk) 13:49, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Without explicit consensus by the community, the maintenance lies only by the WMF
The WMF can't invent such an unwanted gadget and put the responsibility for the probably heavy maintenance into the hand of the different communities without explicit consensus of those communities. Up to the point where a consensus with each community is reached, the responsibility lies solely with the WMFers, who invented this gadget. See also here for the corresponding problems. --♫ Sänger - Talk - superputsch must go 10:40, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
