From #wikimedia-labs earlier today (trimmed for relevance):
[10:15:38 AM] <legoktm>     Oh yeah Coren, is there an eta for the archive
table being available? and is there a bug tracking it?
[10:16:35 AM] <Coren>     legoktm: I don't think there's a bug tracking it, and
it's a couple weeks before I have a definitive answer.
<...>
[10:18:49 AM] <legoktm>     Out of curiosity, is it a legal issue or a
technical one thats holding it back?
[10:21:32 AM] <Coren>     legoktm: Legal.
<...>
[10:23:01 AM] <Coren>     legoktm: I can tell you offhand that, if it is going
to be okayed at all, it will be on a per-case basis and likely require approval
with a process similar to that of getting the researcher right.
