Dear offline wikihackers, if you are interested in general discussions about
offline reading and editing, please join the new offline-l mailing list.  It
is intended for offline use of mediawiki collections, but for those working
on other wiki backends, I expect that much of the work and tools will be
wiki-neutral.

In particular, I expect the recent discussion about how best to get Spanish
Wikipedia to the students in offline schools in Latin America will move
there (so we can stop cc:ing so many people and lists :) - so please
subscribe if you want to follow that thread.

(Alejandro: por favor difundir este mensaje -- debates en español también
son bienvenidos en la nueva lista.)

Regards,
Sam.

To: wiki-offline-reader-l at lists.wikimedia.org


After some discussion with WMF staff and people working on wiki
offline tools, we wanted to make sure we have an official
WMF-designated forum to discuss both offline reader and editor
technologies for Wikimedia Foundation projects and other MediaWikis.
We felt the list name "wiki-offline-reader" didn't reflect
appropriately the need for offline editing and sharing tools, and have
therefore created a new list called offline-l:

https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/offline-l

We'll advertise this new list in the next couple of weeks in various
places. If you're interested in offline discussions, I strongly
encourage you to subscribe there.

Because wiki-offline-reader-l hasn't been very active, I haven't moved
the archives over, but this list won't be deleted for now (I added a
deprecation notice to the list info page).

Thanks and all best,
Erik
