I'm going to nip this one in the bud right away, and given that core
and extension SVN access is already separate already, I already know
we're making use of it. In your SVN auth file on the server:

Oh boy. That was a bit uncalled for there, I'll try to reply to the

Ok. Let's see. Firstly most extensions don't use tags so we can omit

Why not? Extensions have versions, why shouldn't
Is that a reply to Dan's branches/REL_*/extensions madness or a

trying out until they get full extension access is not a scalable

how that could still be
Hi,
It's great to hear that Git, once MediaWiki switches over to it, will
solve some of the issues with granting access. Still, I assume no one
knows exactly when the change-over will come - and I also assume that,
even with Git in place, there will still be issues of access to the

Hi,
So let me propose a technical solution that is hopefully fully
feasible: instead of separating out access by core MediaWiki vs.
extensions, separate it out as: 1) core MediaWiki, 2) extensions used
on public Wikimedia
Happy Melon - I should have clarified how I thought this should be
implemented. I don't mean that any extensions should move locations -
the fact that everything is in one big /extensions directory is quite
helpful. I just mean that there should be some SVN settings so that

Hi,
I think developer accounts on the Wikimedia SVN repository should be
easier to get. I say this because a consultant of ours at WikiWorks,
Ike Hecht, asked for a developer account last week and was rejected.
He created his first major MediaWiki extension, Ad Manager, recently,
which I added to

things have changed quite a bit since 2008.

Neither of those cases apply here - the Ad Manager code was
well-written, and it works. If you're curious, you can see for
yourself the kinds of fixes and changes that were made to the code
