IRC cloaks

James indicated that he would be willing to create mediawiki/ cloaks for those interested as long as Brion approved.

Cloaks would be available to all those with SVN commit access (or someone else?). Requests would be listed on this page.

Cloak possibilities:
 * mediawiki/developer/Username
 * mediawiki/complainer/Username
 * mediawiki/support/Username

To clarify, I said that the MediaWiki/ cloak space is available, but currently unassigned; as First Servant of the MediaWiki community I will do as you wish, and I suggested that Brion would be a good SPoC for what you lot think is appropriate. As to what the availability should be, I'm not sure just stating a particular level is necessarily helpful, but it's for you lot to decide. :-) Jdforrester 18:46, 17 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I dunno about 'complainer'. ;) I have no particular objection to mediawiki cloaks existing, as long as somebody volunteers to maintain the magic of approving 'em. --brion 19:30, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Perhaps having a mediawiki/translator/Username cloak would be nice as well. -- Skiz zerz  20:08, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

I don't mind helping out with the approval part, if somebody is needed to do that. Andrew Garrett 07:17, 14 September 2008 (UTC)


 * That sounds fine to me, you're a trustworthy user and MW developer, and I'm sure that the others agree with me on that. Now if we could get those cloaks before Christmas 2008... :-) -- Sayuri 15:00, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Current status of this: cloaks are coming when the cloak request system is shortly(ish) rewritten to accomodate the extra namespace. We plan to base, in the main part, this on whether you have commit access. &mdash;Sean Whitton / 11:52, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
