Axel Thimm and Patrick Uiterwijk are working on packaging MediaWiki 1.19
for Fedora and have asked for advice on how to enable their MediaWiki
package to support WikiFarms out of the box.[0]

I really don't know how to help them, but I'm sure that someone on this
list has something that would be helpful.

If you have experience, please join in the discussion!


LocalSettingsGenerator should generate $wgConf members (and manipulate them - 
add wiki, delete wiki, upgrade wikis) instead of plain global $wg* settings 
generation.
That's probably impossible in 1.19 without developing such feature then 
backporting it into 1.19.

By the way, how does WMF add new configuration settings into their 
InitialiseSettings.php when new version of MediaWiki recieves them? Eg. 
$wgCacheDirectory which was added in 1.16 and many other new settings? Just 
manually? I do that manually in my farm, although there is always a chance to 
miss the new setting such way. Which may leave it into conflicting or 
suboptimal state. Imagine $wgCacheDirectory poitning to the same dir for all 
local hosts of farm, that's probably not a good thing.
