I have published the access control extension I have developed. It is named "PageSecurity extension".
This extension was developed to fulfill the needs of the company I work for.
It can enforce read and write protection for selected pages or for sets of pages. User access is controled by membership in user groups.
The access rules are specified with named security defintions and applied to page sets through protection expressions.
The extension seems to work but it can have security breaches. I have published it to hopefully have it reviewed by people more knowledgeable of MediaWiki.
Any feedback will be appreciated.
