Is that a reply to Dan's branches/REL_*/extensions madness or a legitimate having 1-3 lines in the config per extension author we are "trying out" until they get full extension access is not a scalable process? Depending on how many people are requesting access, I can see how that could still be true.

I'm going to nip this one in the bud right away, and given that core and extension SVN access is already separate already, I already know we're making use of it. In your SVN auth file on the server:
[/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/SomeExtension] username = rw [/mediawiki/tags/extensions/SomeExtension] username = rw [/mediawiki/branches/extensions/SomeExtension] username = rw
Done. Right now I imagine for extension only access there is just 3 entries like the above, but for the whole extensions directory (I'm guessing) and one for the whole repo.
And I'm going to nip this one in the bud right here. Yes it is technically feasible, but it isn't a scalable process at all.
