Description

For after December:

consolidate 'type': 'metaInline' / 'metaBlock' into 'type': 'meta'
get rid of ve.{ce,dm}.Meta{Inline,Block}Node
create ve.dm.MetaNode with converter stuff but don't inherit ve.dm.LeafNode
- eventually integrate that into the new node API

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

• bzimport raised the priority of this task from to High.Nov 22 2014, 12:55 AM

• bzimport set Reference to bz42398.

Turns out this could only be fixed partially. Consolidating metaBlock and metaInline was not possible and will have to wait until the node API rewrite, so I removed ce.Meta{Block,Inline}Node in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/39847 and wrote up some ideas for the node API rewrite at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Catrope/Node_API

This is fixed in gerrit 39847 which is now merged; will be deployed as part of the 2013-01-16 release cycle.
