Hi Nik,

Thanks for the update, and I look forward to the output.

Some questions.
1) Is this going out independently of the WMF7 update? Or is part of that
update and silent in the detail?
2) This will be in all English language wikis, including the central
wikimedia.org wikis?
3) What is happening with the multilanguage wikis? eg. commons, wikidata
(or are they considered English?)

Thanks. Regards, Billinghurst
