Laszlo Kozma has agreed to open source WikipediaVision as part of a larger Google Summer of Code student proposal he submitted at my request. I see now that the other work Laszlo has proposed is at http://www.lkozma.net/idea23.html and http://www.lkozma.net/idea44.html and I hope he incorporates those into his proposals, because it's not clear presently whether he was intending to include them I believe the plan for WikipediaVision is to enhance it with up to 500-1000 characters of the introduction, and a shorter context around the first instances of the red-character portion of the diff from both diff columns. I don't remember whether Lazslo's plan includes image thumbnails either but they are mentioned in the corresponding bug in bugzilla.
Reminder: still need beach ball and/or volleyball for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/San_Francisco_13 -- who has one?
