What dates are you talking about? Was there a promise that the German 
Wikipedia would be running on Phase III by a specific date? If that is what 
you are talking about then I agree. "It's done when it is mostly bug-free and 
by the way you can help squash bugs" should be the main message with maybe a 
rough estimate on a range of dates it might be finished.
