I was meaning to comment on the overall GSoC proposal before the acceptance stage and didn't get a chance.
Personally I don't think in it's current state/design it is overly suitable for deployment onto MediaWiki wiki as it will introduce a external factor on the page load for each visitor, although I haven't looked at the current privacy policy but it is generally considered a no-no for us.
Also I do have concerns about the overall usefullness of the data and how it will correlate with the extensions, especially when it comes to matching to individual release versions and overall participation on data submission.

Has it already been asked anywhere *whether* to make these ratings available on mediawiki.org?
Yes. This is a GSoC project that was accepted. Getting the ratings to mw.o is the final step of that.
I see no discussion there.
