Echo dependency

[mwjames]

In case a user has enabled him/herself to receive notifications the following is expected to work for the current version:

• changes to a category or property specification send to members of the entity specification change group group
• a category that contains a Notification on indicator will be watched when pages are added or removed from this category and send the information to groups mentioned on the category page
• a property that contains a Notification on indicator will be watched when values are added or removed from this property and send the information to groups mentioned on the property page

@kghbln As of now, Echo cannot be defined as dependency in Composer therefore you have to use the plain old git to pull a version. Also, we should leave the translation open for now as I cannot test the email stuff locally. We have to see how those messages (and keys) show up when Echo is creating email notifications from the sandbox.

@legoktm @paladox While I won't die if I cannot define a dependency but somehow it would be nice to define the dependency via Composer.

@mwjames Hi you can do something like

"repositories": [
    {
        "type": "vcs",
        "url": "https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-Echo"
    }
]

in composer.json or follow

Or you can follow http://www.elcoderino.com/use-composer-to-install-packages-not-on-packagist/ which is the same please.

As a side note: There was a precursor extension of this name. Totally forgot about this.
