Update to recent discussion[0]: we've now moved several of the extensions in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Review_queue forward, so they're actively in design or code review, or close to deployment. Thanks to everyone, volunteer and WMF, who's been working on this.

Specifically, RandomRootPage by Huji, ShortUrl by then-volunteer Yuvi Panda, RandomInCategory by Victor Vasiliev, SpecialInterwiki by Stephanie Amanda Stevens and SPQRobin, SubpageSortKey by Brian Wolff, OnlineStatusBar by Petr Bena, SignupAPI by Akshay Agarwal, and Score by GrafZahl are all further along in the review process than they were a few weeks ago.
I talked with release manager Sam Reed about who must do a deployment review before we'll deploy an extension to the sites, and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Writing_an_extension_for_deployment#Review_fo... now expands the group of people who can do a deployment review. It's anyone in the Gerrit project owner group for MediaWiki - so, this list: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#admin,group,11 .
