GOAL:
Get an idea whether Docker is a feasible means of deploying MediaWiki to 3rd parties.
In order to do so, we build a MediaWiki package that runs inside a Docker container and can (theoretically) be used for productive MediaWiki instances.
This should ideally include
- a vanilla MediaWiki
- some Commonly used extensions
- an extension using a service, e.g. VisualEditor
An upgrade path without data loss should be provided.
