I find it very interesting how ThomasV is arguing about 9 lines of code, which
would improve the extension. And his arguments, that if someone else would do
it will be ok - we have misunderstood him we are only allowed by him to do it
the second best way.

He is arguing that a user Xarax can do this for us whith a lot more of java
script code. I'm sorry Xarax isn't active as an user anymore (we are quite
unhappy about that, only Bot-activities can be seen within in the last 6
month). A experienced programmer - a person who we are laking at the moment -
should write a lot of code to circumvent the obstacles, it must be tested in
the real environment including removing the bugs, we haf bad experiences about
that. 

And his argument other subdomains don't want it (which one? french community
should be clear - or?). If you look at the communications,in total more people
are arguing for enhancing the extension then against. 

Here you have a list of the communities working with proofread
http://wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:ProofreadPage_Statistics

The biggest curiousity is ThomasV introduced a big change in the extension
without talking to a lot of communities. We must learn it the hard way, by
notifying that things which had run good for quite a long time, won't run
anymore suddenly. I think most of the communites didn't know up to now, what
had happened and therefore don't take part in the communication. (I don't think
that a lot of communites are converting multithousand page projects to
Proofread 2). 


I think you should also read this comment here
