Can someone in the know explain why custom skins can't use the same $wgResourceModules['ext.myExtension'] = array(...
resource definition method that extensions use?
I've worked around this by treating resources/Resources.php
as a configuration file, and have added my skin definitions directly to it, but that's far from portable.
Further more, skin definitions don't seem to honour dependencies; I put jquery.ui.widget in, so I can use a smooth div scrolling plugin, but it never loads (even when I'm using debug=true). I ended up adding it to my scripts section, but given what ResourceLoader is all about, that's a bit of a retrograde step.
(I do love the automatic minify and combine, though. Great stuff.)
