Great.

While I really like any enhancements whe have to think about our users.
It makes no sense to have kind of "random" URLs which provide "random"
enhancements to mediawiki packages.  I strongly voto for a quick move
of the mediawiki packages to the Debian mirror and close the ITP bug.

So how can we approach this?

   1. Move tha packaging stuff to alioth (Lolando, did you asked for
      the arch repository)?
   2. Find a decision when the package es ready for an upload.
      If you ask me I would go for an upload to unstable (hey - it
      the name has a sense - if there are some problems in it users
      should know the game).
   3. Coordinate further work on pkg-alioth-devel mailing list.
      (Lolando would you ask for it because you created the project
      or should I try to achieve this?)

Thanks for your work - I'll test it once I'm back from the Utrecht
conference I'm currently beeing at.

Kind regards

           Andreas.
