Details

We need to restrict file uploads to the wiki to certain types, including: txt, png, jpg, gif, xpi, zip, jar, svg This will help reduce problems we've had with flash and shockwave files being uploaded on certain locales. Any others we should specifically allow?
I don't think we should allow XPIs and JARs. Lots of people try to upload their extensions to MDC (at least in the english wiki). When we do need to provide an example XPI, we can upload them to a special location - we even have a bugzilla component for that.
You're right... we shouldn't allow those.
This is configured much better in Deki; marking as fixed.
