There's a few (not too many!) things that need a home, and I think this is a good time to start work on what will become the main entry point for developers to learn about Wikimedia (wiki) projects and Wikimedia (software) products.

developer.wikimedia.org

The initial portal wouldn't be unlike some of these:
* https://developers.google.com/
* https://developers.facebook.com/
* https://dev.twitter.com/

Here's are some very specific use cases that have come up during the Zurich Hackathon that I think would be best served with this:

- Where do I find out about the existence of:
  * gdash.wikimedia.org
  * graphite.wikimedia.org
  * noc.wikimedia.org
  * doc.wikimedia.org
  * git.wikimedia.org
  * wikitech.wikimedia.org
  * irc.wikimedia.org
  ( * stream.wikimedia.org/rc )

  Current solution: None

  Current workaround for regulars:
    https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Services

- Where would I find out about xml dumps?

  Current solution: None

  Current workaround for regulars:
    http://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html

- Where would I find out about pageview count data?

  Current solution: None

  Current workaround for regulars:
    http://dumps.wikimedia.org/
      http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/
        http://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/pagecounts-raw/

I'm sure the people from the "Data API & Hub" table from Zurich Hackathon 2014 have more specific stories and use cases. 

This hub would act as delegate for the following cases (pointing to things on another domain or the same, some of which should probably move to it eventually):

* Products
  Such as:

  - MediaWiki
    -> Homepage
    -> Source code (git repo)
    -> Documentation (separate portal, on mediawiki.org for now, ultimately linking back to developer.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/{js,php,api} for documentation of individual classes and apis.
        We already have JS and PHP docs autogenerated for MediaWiki.
        Docs the API are still hardcoded on mediawiki.org and api.php/help
        exclusively, we should get API and Hooks documentation onto
        doc.wikimedia.org as well.
        See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Documentation_overhaul

  - VisualEditor
    -> Source code
    -> Demo(s)
    -> Documentation

* Data and APIs
  (APIs that are not related to MediaWiki or individual user-facing products, but Wikimedia services in general, MediaWiki's API is one small part of that)

  Such as:

  * page view counts
  * xml dumps
  * OAuth?
  * irc.wikimedia.org
  ( * stream.wikimedia.org/rc )
  * "See also: Wikidata"

* Communications
  - (e.g. link to tech blog, as currently linked from noc.wikimedia.org)
  - mailing lists
