FWIW, when we first switched over, I was constantly having to log in to the wiki. We couldn't figure out why until Mike asked if I were trying to hit the page via HTTP only. Yes, in fact, I was because that was the URL in my Firefox history, so when I started to type "fedor...", it would fill out, "http://fedoraproject.org/"; and I would go from there. Because of the way MediaWiki is setup, when you are logged in, the session is entirely over SSL. Merely switching to an HTTP URL causes the "Log in" link to appear instead of your logged in account info. After I did a search and replace in my Firefox history file, this hasn't been an issue. :) - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Sr. Developer Community Mgr.
