Awesome project!

Here is a question: Lets say I want to link a version of a wiki, would that be possible through some URL pattern?

Best,

A related question is: Can I configure somewhere to only show, for all not logged in readers, a specific "version" of a wiki? This would be a way to simulate update of content in batches accumulated over time (say, a new version every two years).

Best,

I just installed version REL1_30-a380ea2 on MW 1.30 and activated it using wfLoadExtension( 'TimeMachine' ); but it crashes the wiki returning:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message '/var/www/genderation.xyz/mediawiki-1.30.0/extensions/TimeMachine/extension.json does not exist!' in /var/www/genderation.xyz/mediawiki-1.30.0/includes/registration/ExtensionRegistry.php:99\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/genderation.xyz/mediawiki-1.30.0/includes/GlobalFunctions.php(120): ExtensionRegistry->queue('/var/www/gender...')\n#1 /var/www/genderation.xyz/Extensions.conf(138): wfLoadExtension('TimeMachine')\n#2 /var/www/genderation.xyz/LocalSettings.php(193): require_once('/var/www/gender...')\n#3 /var/www/genderation.xyz/mediawiki-1.30.0/includes/WebStart.php(102): require_once('/var/www/gender...')\n#4 /var/www/genderation.xyz/mediawiki-1.30.0/index.php(40): require('/var/www/gender...')\n#5 {main}\n  thrown in /var/www/genderation.xyz/mediawiki-1.30.0/includes/registration/ExtensionRegistry.php on line 99

The file extension.json exists in REL1_31-d81fcc4, however. i used that file and it worked.

Does this extension implement any part of the Memento protocol?

I.e will it clash with any other extension that implements part of Memento, such as Extension:Memento and the lighter Extension:MementoHeaders?

This extension has nothing to do with Memento, and it will not clash with Extension:Memento. Probably.
