To learn more about the roles these different bits and server use see MobileRoles

Supported Platforms/Languages

We are working hard to strike a good balance with natural growth of the platform and growth of support to new devices and platforms.

If we attempted to support every platform, we would be distracted from adding new features and scaling the platform in a natural way. However, if anyone wants to volunteer to work on adding support for any platform or language, we are more than willing to help with that.

Devices currently supported

  • Palm Pre
  • iPhone
  • Kindle 2
  • Android (G1)

Language Support

You can see all of the languages supported at our Mobile Wikipedia translation project page

Contact

The primary developer is Hampton Catlin, but for any server issues, you may also contact Tomaszf or Brion.
