Ah, it seems I was reading the right thing after all. >From there you can get to: http://usability.wikimedia.org/wiki/Releases/Acai And at the bottom it says: "Opt-in/Opt-out switch and survey: As the features above are deployed as one of the user preferences, Opt-in/Opt-out page allows logged in users to turn on and off multiple preferences for the usability initiative at the same time. Users are asked to participate in a quick short survey when they opt-out. This feature is scheduled to be enabled early August." Has anyone tried this new skin "Acai" yet? Or the other "Beta" options? What do you think?
