Hoi,
This has been discussed in the language committee. In the committee we all
agreed that the existing languages for Wikivoyage should start without any
interference of us and that new languages should start through the normal
process because from now they are just like any other new project in a
language.
Thanks,
Gerard

Hi Erik,
What languages are you launching with and what is the procedure for
launching new languages?
We're basing the initial set on the languages which are ready for
import from Wikivoyage. At this point, it looks like that would be
German, Italian, English, French, Dutch and Swedish.
I think it's up to the language committee and the larger Wikimedia
community to determine the process for new languages. My understanding
is that per
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Language_proposal_policy
new languages would need to use the incubator at first to demonstrate
viability.
