Assuming that we are going to put *some* extensions in, we need to decide which ones.

Have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version or http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Extensions_used_on_Wikimedia and see which you would recommend we include.
I'd suggest that you also look at "Suggestions for extensions to be merged into core" on MediaWiki.org.
The point of that page is to list extensions that we love and are frequently used. If they're not already in core, we should probably do the next best thing and bundle them.
I'd also suggest reading bug 26261.[1] I'm kind of surprised this wasn't mentioned in the opening post given that most replies on this mailing list are echoing the bug's comments.
