Life isn't slow on a farm, but this list needs a kick.
To that end, I've started a project page on
MediaWiki.org:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:WikiFarm
Have a look and see what needs to be filled out.
With that said, I really want to dig into MediaWiki's configuration
system[1]. Putting the configuration in the DB (with a wiki column
acting as the key so farming would be easier) really seems to be the
right thing to do. Larger users (like Wikimedia) would want to use CDBS
or something snappy like that, but I'd like to start out with a
DB-backed config.
I haven't had time to really do anything with any of this, but I did
want to check in with you all to see if there was any news.
