The future of MediaWiki

In anticipation of the upcoming MediaWiki Developer Summit and the Wikimedia Foundation's own "All-Hands", a thread was started on the wikitech-l mailing list discussing the future of the architecture committee, which changed direction into discussions about what a potential MediaWiki 2.0 might look like. At the same time, another thread was started discussing the future of MediaWiki running on shared hosting and about foundation's (lack of) support for third-parties, and whether it was even worth continuing to support their usage of MediaWiki. Both threads are still on-going.
