Hi Sumana,
I hope you are well and getting ready for wikimania? :)
There is this rfc on mediawiki that I did everything possible to promote,
to gather feedback from 3rd parties, etc. but now it is all done. From this
point on I cannot bring it any further.
What to do in this cases? Mark it as closed and unsolvable? Or ask for a
volunteer?
Thanks!
Micru

Micru also noted that we've had a previous suggestion for a namespace
manager
