Hi all,

I've been thinking about this and having discussions with Erik, Alolita and
others.

As you know, LiquidThreads is undergoing major re-engineering, including
updates to both the architecture and the user interface (documentation is being
uploaded to MediaWiki.org as it is finished). You can find full details of this
project at MediaWiki.org. [1] Having the old version of LiquidThreads in
production adds complexity to the migration process that will occur once
re-engineering is complete. It also means that engineering time would need to
be spent supporting and maintaining the older version. This would distract from
the development work that is currently in progress on LiquidThreads. Being the
lead developer for LiquidThreads, my priority remains to focus on the
re-engineering work that we are doing, so that we can start piloting the new
version as soon as possible (hopefully by the end of March).

Accordingly, it is our decision that further pilot deployment of LiquidThreads
instances is placed on hold for the time being. LiquidThreads re-engineering
will hopefully be finished in two to three months, and at that point we will be
very pleased to roll out pilots to additional wikis.

Thanks for your understanding,
Andrew
