Since the last update [1], we've been busy (thanks Chris, Sam,
Matthias, Daniel, Hans, Stefan, and everyone else who's helping) to
get the new site set up.
* We're almost done with the extension review. See info here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikivoyage_migration/Extensions
* We've got an internal test set up on Wikimedia Labs that we've used
to test imports and extensions.
* We've finalized the account migration strategy and started
implementing it. See:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikivoyage_migration/Accounts

* We've developed a draft agreement with Wikivoyage e.V. about the
transfer of the domain names. The Wikivoyage e.V. members are
currently voting on this:
http://www.wikivoyage.org/assoc/14._Mitgliederversammlung_%28Online%29/TOP_…
http://www.wikivoyage.org/assoc/14._Mitgliederversammlung_%28Online%29/Besc…
It'll be final on Friday, after which point we can transfer
wikivoyage.org to WMF. So right now our goal is to do the actual
migration next week.
All best,
Erik
