###Topic: mobile site

  • JA (19:00): I'm kinda torn on this [...] it splits your effort

  • JA (20:04): on Stack Overflow it's not the primary goal to be a mobile site

###Topic: Stack Apps API

  • JA (20:16): [...] read only [...] very hard problem with content coming from an API [...] we are not trying to solve that

  • MH (20:40): Why is that hard, to allow to posting content?

  • JA (20:44): [...] duplicate handling [...] hints [...] none of that would be visible from an API [...] that's probably the main concern, and then there are rate limiting issues and [...]

  • JA (21:14): Another argument of splitting effort, rather than having content coming in on just one pipe, where we can apply the same rules to, now we have this other pipe [...]

  • MH (21:24): You don't want to take away the value that's part of the UI?

  • JA (21:28): Yeah, the UI is helping [...] there's a lot of ambient information present on the website, how would that even be presented in an external app we can't control? I'm fine with reading [...] but one of the quickest way to ruin a Q&A system is to flood it with bad questions - now I'm not sayin having a write API would cause that, but anything that risks that is a very very serious risk.
