With that said, I agree that the dev hub currently is

inside baseball and we should try to make it more understandable if we
prominently link it from every footer of every page.
Alright, let's move onto the next round: which dev hub?
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_developer_hub
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_hub
mediawiki.org is a better default landing place for developers than
Meta, do you agree?
Is it worth considering the merge of both pages, as it has been suggested?
And in any case the API should be promoted upfront. Now the Meta hub
has no mention (I could find) while the dense MediaWiki hub features
the link if you are patient to find it (or you use the search, as I
did).
