Well, I dunno about that... ;)

But here's where we stand right now:

We've set up a couple more test sites to do some final shakedown testing 
of Flagged Revisiosn and Reader Feedback, respectively:

http://flaggedrevs.labs.wikimedia.org/
http://readerfeedback.labs.wikimedia.org/

I'm currently in the process of importing the complete set of 
en.wikipedia featured articles onto both of these to play with. It'll be 
at least a couple hours before they're fully populated.

The ReaderFeedback component will probably go live sooner, as it's 
easier to drop in and has less visible impact on the page. The 
FlaggedRevs setup is currently using the config from 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Flagged_protection_and_patrolled_revisions/Implementation#PHP_configuration

After a couple more weeks of solid shakedown I hope we can get something 
prepped that folks are happy with trying. :) (Over in dev-land we're 
using a simple FlaggedRevs setup for our manual pages on 
http://www.mediawiki.org/ and are pretty happy so far.)
