cool! So you're suggesting we wait until WMF

Only if it is actually happening. I know Chad has wanted to do this
for some time, but the Git migration took over. I think he is the
staffer working on this.

I've just replied on this issue in the "[Mediawiki-enterprise] RFC
Configuration database" thread.
What work could potentially be done in the interim, before the
configuration database exists, to help with the goal of a common
extensions repository and administrative dashboard? Some ideas:
* user interface mockups and paper-prototyping usability tests for the
repository and the dashboard
* getting the metadata for lots of extensions in shape (name,
description, download, Packagist listing, icon, authorship, licensing,
etc.) for use in the repository
