Proposal for adding the UniversalLanguageSelector to the Fedora Wiki

[Runa Bhattacharjee]

Hello,

I am writing on behalf of the Wikimedia Language Engineering team[1],
who would like to explore the possibility of implementing the
UniversalLanguageSelector(ULS)[2] MediaWiki extension on
fedoraproject.org/wiki. The ULS is part of Project Milkshake[3] that
aims to bring common internationalization features through generic
jQuery components. Live versions can be found at:

http://userbase.kde.org/Welcome_to_KDE_UserBase
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki (needs login)
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (needs login)

It was suggested that we start the conversation here to get a feedback
on this proposal.

Thanks
Runa

Hi

The first step would be to get the extension packaged in the repository.  I
can look into that. It appears Santosh is the dev for this extension.  I
found the git url here

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gitweb?p=mediawiki/extensions/UniversalLangua...

Do you have release tarballs?  It is not mandatory but convenient to have.
As as a side note, dual licensing code under MIT/GPL is pointless.  If you
have a permissive license codebase,  GPL is entirely superfluous.
