The current "Find a language" search box does not work because of a bug in the API that we use. We want to comment out this search box so that users aren't frustrated by it not working.

@JGirault @Jdrewniak Are you planning on using SVGs later in the process in contrast to the PNGs right now?
@Volker_E we'd love to, but the lack of SVG support in old browsers is a big issue...
For now we haven't made a decision on the list of browsers that we support. We try to support them all.
@JGirault There are already well tested ways for CSS usage of SVGs in core, that you could simply copy: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/MW/browse/master/resources/src/mediawiki.less/mediawiki.mixins.less;0ab3ca5d45bc933fb075640879f3af428e06f4de$38
