[wp-hackers] Single sign-on with Wordpress & Mediawiki

[Stephane Daury]

Depending on the type of community you are serving, you could also  
consider doing it *the right way* and use OpenID or LDAP, which both  
projects support with the appropriate plugins.

That's only really viable if you have a closed community, not the  
general public, but I thought I'd mention it.
