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 ForeignAPIRepo)

Projects in the pipe

 * Evaluate current wikifarm extensions, see what they do, and how they can be improved.
 * The WikiFarm extension
 * See Orain — the non-profit WikiFarm and Orain's code.
 * MediaWiki-Vagrant would make a good tool to use for setting up a farm
 * Create a Wikifarm profile for MediaWiki-Vagrant
 * Get the OpenID extension to a state where it can be easily and stably configured as an inter-wiki authentication service.
