In this talk I will introduce you to how Semantic MediaWiki (extension) development is done. This is a must attend for everyone doing such development already or those who are interested in getting involved. Since it's a technical talk, it's not really geared towards the casual wiki user, but everyone is welcome. The goal of the talk is to give you some overview of what's going on, what resources are available and what best practices you ought to be following.
