Dear Experts,
Could someone instruct me on how to download stable production version of mediawiki plugin? For example: I would like to get stable version of LDAP Authentication plugin:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LDAP_Authentication
the stable version is version 1.2b according to:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LDAP_Authentication#Current_version
There is, however, no link to download stable version, going along download links I can get latest snapshot, which is not what I want.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Sincerely yours,
Valeri

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor/LdapAuthenticatio... has a drop-down selector for lots of different versions of MediaWiki.

That's out-of-date. I've removed it.
Dear Benjamin,
Thanks for quick response!
I did as you suggested, chose in drop-down menu version 1.16 (which is latest stable version of mediawiki, and with which I intend to use LDAP plugin). A snapshot of version r61987 has been created (so that page says), which I downloaded. Now I'm a bit confused, whether what I downloaded is a snapshot of latest svn version of LDAP plugin, or it is a snapshot of release version of LDAP plugin (that has been tested with 1.16 version of mediawiki).
Thanks again,

The trunk version of the LDAP plugin is essentially always the stable version. I don't branch plugins for versions of MediaWiki, instead I try to keep backwards compatibility as far back as possible.
