Hi, going through the list of mediawiki extensions,
I found some that might be useful for our new wiki, and that I would like to
try out:

- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VideoFlash
allows us to embed videos from our youtube channel, and helps to move
tube.o.o into the wiki

We're already moving tube into youtube/blip. No need to put it into the
wiki. But as general possibility it sounds cool.

This is not about hosting videos, but including the possibility to embed the
player
from various video hosting sites (including blip and youtube).


- http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi
gives us syntax highlighting for included example code snippets

Nice!

- http://blog.bemoko.com/2008/06/28/bugzilla-reports-for-mediawiki/
Can include some Bugzilla data into wiki pages

Looks nice but for what would we actually use it? I just skimmed over
the usual suspect pages for bugzilla links and it seems to me that links
are just fine. The only real benefit i see would be to integrate this
into Template:Bug so one can use {{Bug|12345}} and gets the output but
for most use cases this seems to be a bit much output. Did you have any
specific use case in mind?

I thought about the annoying bugs page and automatically showing the state of a
bug,
need to check if this plugin is good for that though.
I thought this and a fate extension might give a bit more integration between
our tools.

Greetings
