Hi Legoktm,
I'm glad you brought this up. No, I haven't released the extensions yet - it's been on my to-do list for a very long time, but it kept getting delayed by other stuff I was working on, the updating of my MediaWiki book being among the most recent. However, at the moment my major projects have mostly subsided, and releasing these two extensions is very high on my list of priorities. I hope to get it done... soon.

I know I'm digging up an old thread, but I was curious if there were any updates on open sourcing your two extensions?

Hi Mark et al.,
I probably should have responded on the earlier thread - I didn't want to overwhelm the discussion. Anyway, I run the MediaWiki-based wiki farm Referata (referata.com http://referata.com), and I'm actually planning
to release the software that powers it as open source in the next few months. It's composed of two main extensions: Site Settings and Wiki Garden; the latter requires the former. I don't mean to try to discourage any other attempts to create wiki farm functionality - and anyway, more alternatives are always better - but I wanted to note that plan.

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 useCDBS 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. [1] http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.org.wikimedia.wikifarm/11 -- Mark A.
