Also consider sticking the script in it's own repo (if it's likely re-usable by other actors).

@Sebastian_Berlin-WMSE: Would it make sense to move the current text under the Documentation mw:Extension:Wikispeech#Complete_list_of_configuration_options into the description parameters of the extension.json?

I'll look into adding a flag for specifying schema version and keeping the old logic. If we want others to use this, there are plenty of extension still using manifest version 1.

Added a note to the weekly meeting about how to deal with mediawiki.org's sudden self-updating feature.
Note that we could theoretically also populate the Complete list of configuration options section using a module+template which works of mw:Module:ExtensionJson
