Description:
Bug 17255 originally tracked the upload in chunks which was closed when it was deployed, but then disabled later on. It has since been refactored into the FirefoggChunkedUpload extension.
Upload by chunks is still in the mediaWiki manual on the upload api: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Upload#Chunked_upload
And is supported in the firefogg extension, a native javascript implementation could potentially be added to the Upload Wizard, but that is a separate bug, and having it supported on the server is a prerequisite to clients support.
If we want to make any changes to the chunk uploading protocol we should make thous change requests known now.
Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement
