v2.9.3 is another light release. It has a few fixes for Chinese wikis.
</p>
<h3>
<span class='mw-headline' id='Handle_new_relative_urls_for_CSS'>Handle new relative urls for CSS</span>
</h3>
<p>
Wikimedia changed their url format for CSS resources this week. Previously it used to be "//simple.wikipedia.org/w/...". Now it is just "/w/..." Unfortunately, since XOWA didn't handle relative-style urls, the CSS files weren't being downloaded for new wikis. This is fixed now.

</h3>
<p>
After building the images for the Chinese wikis, I noticed that there were issues with blank message boxes and blank reference text. It turned out that these were broken by the language dropdown back in v2.8.1. I spent a good deal of time fixing these issues, but realized that the current implementation of variant handling (-{zh-hans:text}-) needs to be rewritten.
</p>
<p>
The current version is much better than the last version, but there are still some changes that need to be done.
</p>
<h3>
<span class='mw-headline' id='Minor_source_code_reorganization'>Minor source code reorganization</span>
</h3>
<p>
I spent a good deal of time reorganizing the main XOWA project codebase. In particular, XOWA had a lot of extra "Source Folders" in addition to "src". These folders arose from the C# to Java conversion and C# having a broader scope for a non-public class than Java (in C#, non-public classes can be seen by classes across namespaces).
</p>
<p>
Source code cleanup is an ongoing process, but this should make a substantial difference.

These wikis were fairly straightforward.

v2.9.1 is a light release. It adds a new Graph extension.
</p>
<h3>
<span class='mw-headline' id='Added_Graph_extension._Help:Diagnostics.2FJavascript.2FGraph'>Added Graph extension. [[Help:Diagnostics/Javascript/Graph]]
</h3>
<p>
MediaWiki recently began incorporating a new Javascript-centric extension for making graphs. They only show up on a few pages, but I wanted to make sure XOWA handled them before they show up on more.
</p>
<h3>
<span class='mw-headline' id='Removed_Mac_OS_X_DMG'>Removed Mac OS X DMG</span>
</h3>
<p>
I ended up removing the Mac OS X DMG. The main problem is that future updates (for example v2.9.1) would actually overwrite any existing wikis. I'll reinstate the DMG at a future release, but I'll need to make some XOWA changes to allow customized user wiki folders.
