[Mediawiki-l] PageSecurity and 1.9

On my first tests, the extension worked with 1.9.1. I reapplied the patches
manually on the new version files. I had some issues with the Semantic
MediaWiki extension on MediaWiki 1.9.1, though.

I expect to release a version of the patched files next week.

Regards,

Fernando.
