W0 + Partners[edit]

  • #2 ESI / GIFification - blocked on W0 team itself, as nested W0 configuration support is being built
  • #57 Firefox OS Exploration - card can probably be closed; Ajax page loading is going away in MobileFrontend as we understand; the Partnerships/Partners team will be looking at Firefox OS work for the upcoming FY - possibly a search widget, possibly finding a way to sandbox wildcarded domain patterns to just use the mobile website
  • #121 Nested W0 Configuratons - new card created for in-progress work on supporting nexted configurations
  • #122 Thumbnail Downsampling - new card created for in-progress work on downsampling thumbnails to reduce bandwidth usage

QA[edit]

(Actually I am OK with merging the one for AFTv5 as that is only for historical/documentation purposes, but a +1 or +2 there would still be nice)
