Plus we already have another system that is getting worked on and rolled out to a few of the production wikis that will seem to do similar features (based on comments in this thread already).
I'm honestly not familiar enough with Wikidata to be able to tell how applicable it'd be to wikitech/mwm. My understanding of it is from a Wikipedia editor's point of view and I see it as "The place where data is stored in a language-independent manner and can be used by all content wikis in a way that resemble SMW without redundancy".
It's not clear to me that mixing our technical data with the encyclopedic data is reasonable; or that we aren't going to be causing trouble if we try. Does it support some namespace-equivalent to segregate different data sets?
