Typo? "deskstop platforms" #876

HEY JOHN ITS JON

docs/about/features.html mentions "deskstop platforms" and I think you meant "desktop platforms". I'm not one to presume, and it's not really that big of a deal, so I'll go ahead and mark this as Critical.

Hear me out! Now, in my twenty-eight years of professional experience as a human being, I've been under the distinct impression that all desks, and not just any one particular collection were generally perceived to be large, solid objects, never intended for through-traffic or other forms of crossing. The idea of a "deskstop", albeit novel, seems somewhat commonplace, because I see all desks as a stopping point, rarely ever as a means of transportation.

http://www.google.com/search?q=desks+that+fly&hl=en http://www.google.com/search?q=desks+that+don't+stop&hl=en http://www.google.com/search?q=shuttle+desk&hl=en http://www.google.com/search?q=embarrassing+shaving+rash+cure#sclient=psy&hl=en&q=define:deskstop&fp=1

Perhaps I'm unaware of some less-considerable yet still deeply valuable marketshares for desks specifically designed and intended to stop an individual. Personally, I think the idea is as exciting as it is confusing. Very well, I could also be wrong, wrong, wrong, and I shall pay dearly for my insolent conduct! Indeed, this may be part of a grander gesture on the part of jQuery Mobile; one piece in a larger puzzle to meet the needs of the growing "one stop desk stop" markets.

The point is --- I could beat you in Mario Kart Wii or New Super Mario Bros Wii any day, any time.

Remove support for stopping desk-based platforms, closed by 4445ae3702b805fa4567aaf9129e5c141b0923dd. In the future if you wish to stop desks on platforms I recommend a cheap solution to that problem: http://www.amazon.com/Magic-Sliders-80934-Rubber-Door/dp/B000UVMQ38

If you wish to have support brought back it can only be done so through successfully beating me at iOS Carcassonne. My username is 'jeresig@gmail.com'. Warning: I don't lose.
