** Do we have this to be approved by anyone?
*** ACTION Richi -- Ask Quim if he can help with this.
*** There is a similar item: see https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MediaWiki_Community_UNOFFICIAL_DRAFT.svg (=maybe an alternative)
*** Using the community colors means we do align with the community. Is that the case?
*** yes, that's our self-conception

==Fixing LDAP==
* Robert Vogel created LDAP hub on mediawiki.org
* Is there a logo we can use on the work to indicate it is an MWstake activity?
* Important project for us to start with technical cooperation
* Cindy: naming of LDAP authentication and LDAP authorisation is confusing for users
* There is a sub portal page: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LDAP_hub also note the subpages, e.g.: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LDAP_hub/Migration_from_extension_LDAPAuthentication/Example_1
* ACTION: Set up a phab task and link it on the ldap hub page

== EMW Consortium? ==
* https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2017-May/046586.html
