[edit] Generating PDFs
After a major refactoring this Extension is now really easy to install. It is configured by default to use the server http://tools.pediapress.com to generate PDFs. Therefore (low traffic) sites don't need to install their own PDF Server anymore.
Simply install and configure the Collection extension using the default value http://tools.pediapress.com/cgi-bin/pdf-server.py for $wgPDFServer (see README.txt of the Collection Extension for instructions).
No installation of Python, ReportLab, mwlib etc. required!
