[Foundation-l] Wikipedia meets git

[jamesmikedupont at googlemail.com]

Thanks,
I will apply for an account when It is ready for integration.

this is still in experimentation mode.
The git replaces the mysql database.

But there is alot more work to do to make this viable.

thanks for all your encouragement and support.
