[02:13:04] TIL that Gabriel based MonoBook on an earlier skin called DaVinci (which afaik was not deployed but drafted during MediaWiki 1.3) [02:13:11] Some of you may know that already. [02:13:23] But did you know he took the icons from Plone CMS? [02:13:25] https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mail_icon_7.gif [02:14:31] I just spent some time digging all that up, because the image was there as "Wikipedia screenshot" which seemed silly given that it's a straight copy from MediaWiki so should be GPL not GFDL. [02:14:39] But... then I realized it didn't really originate there [02:14:55] anyway, on the bright side, I didn't need to figure out who to credit for "MediaWiki". [02:48:34] I did not know he took the icons from elsewhere. huh [02:59:58] In a very early draft, he even loaded them from his own webserver [02:59:58] https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/core/+/aecb093df02c48d28de2dfaf109be28e22ccc41e%5E%21/stylesheets/DaVinci.css [03:00:10] `list-style-image: url("http://www.aulinx.de/bullet.gif");` [03:00:52] https://web.archive.org/web/20040614170720/http://www.aulinx.de/ [03:01:44] "From hosting on own servers to maintenance and development. Plone, Zope, Mediawiki, Linux." - IT services by GWicke [03:33:41] huh [03:33:52] we really were the wild wild west back in the day
