Description:
Single sign-on for MySQL employees works for Forge, but not for the Forge's wiki. Jay told me this (2006-06-05):

"This is on the list of things to do for Forge.  I have received code 
from Domas and Brion Vibbor to authenticate MediaWiki to a separate db 
store, and hopefully can work that in this week (along with a number of 
other things).  What you can do to help is simply add a bug report to 
bugs.mysql.com for a single sign-on wiki for Forge.  That way it will be 
tracked appropriately."

How to repeat:
Try to add or edit an article in Forge's wiki.

Suggested fix:
Make single sign-on work.

Colin has received code from Brion/Domas for ForgeAuthPlugin.php.  I'll work with him to integrate with the rest of the single-signon stuff.

Entirely re-coded authentication based on a centralized RESTful API for both DRPL and Authentication checks in Forge 2.0.  This bug is therefore obselete.

In addition, MediaWiki login is now centralized in new Forge 2.0.
