MediaWiki extensions as of version 1.20 need to be available through ExtensionDistributor. There's currently 1.19.x and development versions, but some extensions render unusable with both options now as stated on the URL linked on this bug. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #31205 +++
We don't have 1.20 branched extensions
And that is a reason to reject this defect as invalid? Not having 1.20 branched extensions is a good enough reason to tell users that they can't have extensions for 1.20? You are kidding, surely. If the trunk version of all extensions was stable and worked with 1.20 that would be just about ok but that is not true. The trunk version of at least one extension used by Wikipedia does not work with 1.20. Bluntly, this is not customer focussed. This is a "we can't be bothered" answer. Please think again.

ConfirmEdit is one of them, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/No_way_of_getting_hold_of_extensions_guaranteed_to_work_with_1.20.0
