Hi all,
I wrote the extension matrix bot. However, I no longer rely on it and the web server it is hosted on was upgraded, breaking the bot.
bot results: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_Matrix
bot error: https://gist.github.com/brianmingus/8d7730d42df9b1fec707/raw/0dec7acb0610dd0...
There are no published statistics on how frequently the bot results are accessed, so I have no idea whether anyone relies on it. Thus, I'm not sure if it's worth my time to fix the bot.
In general, it would be for the best if the WMF took over this bot and ran it on their own server. It has been running on http://grey.colorado.edu for years, but that's really not the intended purpose of that server.
I posted this in IRC but didn't get any feedback. If nobody cares about the bot results it might just die.. which would be kinda' sad.
Brian
there should be the stats on pageviews....
have you considered a labs instance for it?

Given the apparent lack of interest I have decided to discontinue the bot. The source code is available online if anyone is interested in taking over maintenance.
