What is a WikiFarm?
A WikiFarm is a "farm" that grows wikis.

There are a number of specific goals to be achieved:


 * Centralized configuration of the individual wikis


 * Centralized authentication and authorization


 * Shared local files and resources


 * Shared wiki files (i.e., images with ForeignDBRepo)

Projects in the pipe

 * Evaluate current wikifarm extensions, see what they do, and how they can be improved.


 * Extension:MediaWikiFarm


 * See [http://Orain.org/ Orain — the non-profit WikiFarm] and [https://github.com/orain Orain's code].


 *  would make a good tool to use for setting up a farm
 * Create a Wikifarm profile for MediaWiki-Vagrant


 * Get  to a state where it can be easily and stably configured as an inter-wiki authentication service.


 * Really wikifarms should just use the  functionality
