Great! Just let us know what you need.
Well, I'm not the right person to ask. :) Brion or Tim has to review
anything you want to go live. I don't have shell access and can't
enable extensions. If you want a particular feature of SMW enabled on
Wikimedia, the right course of action is to 1) break off the code for
that specific feature into some kind of small, narrow,
easily-reviewable bundle, 2) open a bug asking for that single
specific feature to be enabled, 3) pester people until they review it,
4) fix any complaints they have, 5) goto (3). Then repeat for any
other individual features.
At least that's my impression of what would work -- again, I'm not any
authority here. One thing that's for sure is that active pestering is
usually needed to get things done at present.
I am happy with moving code to core ;-) But,
seriously, even if you go for
completely new implementations, it would be great if we could discuss these
things to make all those additions at least minimally compatible. Is there
currently a core group of people at MW who are interested in that topic? Who
would be likely to develop such an in-core tagging feature anyway?
Well, there have been fairly extensive discussions on this list about
implementation of category intersections. Software discussions are
done here.
