2012-04-monthly
editMax Semenik has rewritten MobileFrontend to use MediaWiki's skin infrastructure. We're continuing to further remove any Wikimedia-specific code from the extension in preparation for a migration to core. Future work will involve an easy way to create custom output based on the view (mobile, desktop, tablet).
