Assuming there is only one, because one one has been allowed is beating a man with his own staff. 2) This is not true. Clicking "Make a book out of this page, and hold on I'm going to add some more pages to this book" has nothing to do with integration. I can build a list of the pages you choose, right now, with a Php script and without any foundation approval. My button interface might not be "pretty" of course, but it would work. 3) Under what RFP ? How was it chosen, how was it vetted, why is the process to gain this approval now closed to any rival? _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
