Dear all I wanted to update you on some of the issues with QRpedia and the work that's being undertaken to resolve these by one of our developers. We originally created a solution to the double-encoding issue based on an older release, and are now merging this into the current codebase (this merge is currently being tested). More generally we are taking the opportunity to add a test suite to define the expected behaviour, and add some basic developer documentation.
Whilst our developer spent some time working on QRpedia earlier this year, in recent months the priority has been on other WMUK technology projects. I’m sorry if this has resulted in a feeling that the tool is not being supported or maintained, which isn’t the case. I do appreciate people’s frustration regarding ongoing issues and we are working to address these.
