Skin pages on MW.org (and repos in Gerrit) are now ready.

MediaWiki.org is now ready for modern skins (ones NOT using old QuickTemplate and skins/Foo.php patterns) to have pages about them just like extensions do.

Relevant links:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:All_skins
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Skin

Some examples that currently exist:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Skin:Erudite
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Skin:Vector

Gerrit can also handle your skin repos. Ask for a mediawiki/skins/{skinname} repo. So your skins can now have proper review and be updated with the various improvements that get made to MediaWiki's skinning system.

When you do introduce a skin here please do follow the file layout patterns I used in my tutorials:
http://blog.redwerks.org/2012/02/08/mediawiki-skinning-tutorial/
http://blog.redwerks.org/2012/02/28/mediawiki-subskin-tutorial/
I don't want to see any non-core skins using the outdated skins/TheSkin.php pattern in the new skins area.
