Hi Even,
Have you taken a look at the Meza [1] project yet? It may offer a solution
to your update/deployment issue. It's actively maintained and currently
used by several companies/agencies. It is doesn't yet support MW 1.35, but
I'm guessing that's coming soon.

Hallo all,
I have been maintaining a number of wiki installations based on MW and
extensions (including SMW) for more than a decade.
I must admit, I find it increasingly hard to update these installations.
The old zips have mostly disappeared, and the once promising Composer is
not straightforward to use, nor is GitHub. Composer is even disallowed by
some internet providers, for some reason.
I would have liked to see a management frontend where you select your
choice of extensions, and get the corresponding code and possibly database
updated, not having to know technical details, such as the structure of
JSON files or other. As the situation is now, I suspect many wiki
installations use rather old code versions, which is really a pity.
Regards,
Even Thorbergsen
