CentralAuth is a pain to set up IIRC. It would be nice to have a Vagrant role for it.
Ori has suggested making Vagrant provision multiple machines for this, but CentralAuth can run quite happily on one so we should start with one.
Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement
Needs some config like this: http://pastebin.com/QLKcEws6
And it also needs a database, which isn't set up by update.php (Technically I think it could go in one of the MediaWiki DBs but generally it has a separate DB.)
We'll probably want to run migratePass0.php and migratePass1.php to global-ise any existing users and give the option to specify a user to be added to global_group_permissions with steward rights. From the extension page: "Then, run migrateStewards.php to promote local stewards to global steward status."
